The Samsung Electronics Union Joint Struggle Headquarters announced it will hold an all\u2011out strike rally beginning at 1 p.m., and observers view the shareholders\u2019 event as a direct countermeasure. <\/p>\n<p> Earlier, on the 23rd, the union staged a rally of about 40,000 at its Pyeongtaek plant to signal its readiness to escalate the dispute. The union is demanding performance bonuses equal to 15% of operating profit, with no cap. <\/p>\n<p> At that time, the Korea Shareholders Movement Headquarters issued a separate statement nearby, arguing the union\u2019s demand was excessive and could infringe on shareholders\u2019 property rights. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung union demands 15% bonus;
