The Samsung Group cross-company labor union\u2019s Samsung Biologics branch said the first round of its general strike will continue unchanged through the 5th. Earlier, CEO John Lim apologized to employees for \u201cfailing to communicate proactively\u201d and pledged to reach an amicable collective bargaining agreement, but his apology did not halt the strike. The union is calling for a reset of personnel policies and for measures to close wage gaps within the group. In particular, it has demanded a one-time payment of 30 million KRW (approximately $22,500) per person and an average 14% wage increase.
