SEOUL: Samsung Electronics asked a court on Thursday to block its South Korean labour unions engaging in illegal activities during a planned strike, a spokesperson said, as a wage dispute threatens to disrupt operations at the world’s top memory chipmaker.
Samsung did not elaborate on details of its legal action. Unions labelled it a “declaration of war,” accusing the company of infringing on its right to strike, which is protected under the law.
