Samsung and unions

The electronics manufacturer Samsung Electronics has assembly plants and sales networks in 74 countries and employs more than 270,000 workers. Samsung employees in South Korea went on a one-day strike on 7 June 2024. The strike was extended from 8 July to 1 August. It was the first employee led strike in the Samsung Group. Workers in India went on strike since September 2024 for union recognition.

Samsung Group historically has a no-union policy and has been engaged in union-busting activities around the world, including setting up management unions, surveilling workers and retaliating against workers who try to unionize.
