Workers at SK hynix Inc. are poised to create an integrated labor union, with the ambition of gaining control over more than half of the company's employees, according to industry sources. A preparatory committee is set to file a request to establish this union as early as Wednesday, the sources reported. The newly formed union aims to recruit approximately 18,000 out of SK hynix's total workforce of around 35,000 employees, in order to achieve majority-union status.
Currently, three distinct labor unions negotiate with management separately. However, a task force, functioning as an interim organization for the integrated union, has been established voluntarily by employees and will persist until an official union leader and executive committee are elected. The task force emphasized that their top priority is to unite the voices of employees across various job categories and regions, and to establish a majority union where all members have equal voting rights and make decisions collectively.
