Micron’s Taiwan unions threaten strike over bonus dispute

TAIPEI: Micron Technology’s labour unions in Taiwan said on Tuesday they were moving towards possible strike action unless the U.S. memory-chip maker overhauls its bonus system and shares more of its profits with employees.

The unions, representing Micron workers in Taoyuan and Taichung, said in ​a written response to Reuters that they had nearly 10,000 members among Micron’s roughly 15,000 employees in the two cities.

More than 80% of members who took part in an internal online survey in August backed strike action, they said.
