Samsung Electronics' union, comprising roughly 28,000 members, staged its first walkout in South Korea demanding better pay, signaling a shift towards more assertiveness among employees as the conglomerate focuses on AI chip production. The strike is not expected to immediately impact semiconductor production but adds pressure on Samsung Electronics in narrowing the gap with TSMC. The walkout follows recent worker protests and calls for negotiation over confrontation from other Samsung affiliates' unions.
