Hyundai Motor Union Launches Full Strike for First Time in 10 Years, Halting Production Lines

The Hyundai Motor labor union went on an 8-hour full strike today (the 21st) for the first time in 10 years due to stalled wage negotiations.

Around 39,000 union members, including office workers, are participating in the strike.

As a result, all production lines at the Ulsan, Jeonju, and Asan plants have come to a halt.

The union is demanding an increase in bonuses, an extension of the retirement age, and the reinstatement of dismissed union members, but has failed to narrow differences with the company.

The union has also announced plans for partial strikes of 4 hours each on the 24th and 25th.
