US memory chip leader Micron Technology announced on Friday that its Taiwanese employees will receive compensation worth up to 68 months of pay, following threats from labor unions to strike until the company reformulates its bonus structure. The compensation package for Taiwan-based direct labor team members will amount to total rewards ranging between 35 to 68 months, with a minimum cash payment of T$1.7 million (US$53,700) expected for the fiscal year 2026.
