SK Hynix's Korean workers launch unified union amid stalled wage talks
On August 13, workers at South Korea's leading memory chipmaker, SK Hynix, established a unified union to empower employees across varied job categories and sites. This move comes amid ongoing wage negotiations between SK Hynix and its existing unions, following the company's announcement of record quarterly profits driven by robust demand for AI infrastructure.
As of the union's official launch, nearly 2,500 employees have joined the new organization, which intends to represent workers from factories in Icheon and Cheongju, as well as technical and office staff.
