Unionized workers at South Korea’s STX Offshore & Shipbuilding Co have reportedly taken industrial action over planned job cuts.
Starting first thing Monday, the union said 700 workers will walk out and call on the company to scrap the planned layoffs, reported the Yonhap news agency.
“We will carry out a full strike for the time being, and hold protests and rallies to have the people become aware of unfairness surrounding the planned layoff,” an unnamed union official was quoted as saying.
