Market Chatter: Samsung Electronics, Labor Union Narrow Gaps in Strike Talks; Shares Decline 4%

Samsung Electronics (KRX:005930) and its largest labor union managed to narrow some differences in their fresh talks that resumed Monday, ⁠Yonhap Infomax reported Tuesday, citing the chairman of the ​National ​Labor Relations Commission.

The court granted Samsung Electronics' request to limit potential union strike actions, lowering the risk of major disruptions in chip production. The ruling bars certain activities, including occupying company facilities, Bloomberg reported Monday.

The labor union has threatened an 18-day strike, scheduled to begin Thursday, if demands are unmet. This has raised concerns over global supply chains, given the firm's key role in chip production. The dispute reflects broader labor tensions as workers seek a larger share of profits from the AI-driven chip boom, following failed mediation, the report said.

Shares of Samsung Electronics fell by over 4% in recent trade.
