Workers’ union threatens strike again at Samsung

Less than a month after ending their strike, the Samsung India Workers’ Union (SIWU) has threatened to issue a fresh strike notice, citing unfair labour practices and alleged vindictive actions by Samsung India management.

The decision was taken at a general body meeting in Kancheepuram on Sunday, which was reportedly attended by over 1,000 workers. SIWU President and CITU district secretary of Kancheepuram, E Muthukumar, confirmed the development to FE. “We will issue a fresh strike notice on Wednesday,” he said.
