The unions estimate about 39,000 people participated \u2014 roughly one-third of Samsung Electronics\u2019 approximately 120,000 employees. <\/p>\n<p> On the recent death of a union member at a Cargo Truckers\u2019 rally, Kim said he was monitoring the situation with concern and expressed relief that the Ministry of Employment and Labor is holding productive talks with those on the ground. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung Electronics union demands performance pay increase;
