, ‘Since January, Samsung Electronics management and the nationwide Samsung Electronics labor union have been negotiating but failed to narrow their differences on wage negotiations, performance bonus systems, and vacation systems. After the wage negotiation failed in February, the union secured the right to protest through a decision to halt conciliation by the Central Labor Relations Commission and a vote among union members. In previous years, when wage negotiations failed in 2022 and 2023, the Samsung Electronics union secured the right to protest through conciliation but did not actually go on strike.’,
