Hyundai Motor Company is keenly aware of the labor union’s strong movement. With nearly 60,000 pre-contracts for the new Santa Fe released on the 14th, attention is being paid to whether the union will go on a general strike for the first time in five years.
According to the industry on the 25th, the Hyundai Motors branch labor union (hereafter referred to as the Hyundai Motors union) started voting for a strike from 8:00 am on the same day. Voting will be held until 6:00 p.m. by mobile method.
Since there has never been a case in the history of the Hyundai Motors union where a strike vote was rejected, this vote is also expected to pass. Previously, Hyundai Motor’s labor union declared a breakdown in negotiations on the 18th when the management did not present a collective plan for collective bargaining this year.
Hyundai Motor’s labor union said, “Starting with the meeting on June 13, we had 17 negotiations for about two months, but we repeated the stance 스포츠토토of absolute impossibility.”
Even if the vote is passed, it does not mean going on strike immediately, but the approval of the strike is expected to act as a card to pressure the management in negotiations.
This year’s union demand includes a basic wage increase of 184,900 won (excluding salary increase), 30% of the previous year’s net profit (including stocks) as performance bonus, 900% bonus, and various allowances and realization. The separate demands included an extension of the retirement age, preparation of manpower management plans for new electric vehicle factories, and demands for job security, such as responding to changes in existing powertrain employment. handed down
In particular, it is interpreted that the possibility of the labor union going on strike has increased as the gap between labor and management has not been narrowed over the extension of the retirement age. It is evaluated that the labor union has also prepared a reason to raise its voice as Hyundai Motor Company renewed its record-high quarterly performance this year in the first half of the year.
If the Hyundai Motors union actually goes on strike, it will be the first strike in five years in relation to the collective bargaining agreement.
If the labor union goes on strike, there is a high possibility that the sales volume and new car effect, which supported Hyundai Motor’s high performance, will also be put to a halt. In fact, Hyundai Motor suffered a loss of 275 billion won and 11,000 production disruptions due to a four-day partial strike during the union’s general strike in 2018.
An industry insider said, “Hyundai Motor is predicted to continue the trend in the first half in the second half, but the labor union’s strike is one of the biggest variables.” and can instill negative perceptions among consumers.”
Meanwhile, the results of the strike vote by Hyundai Motor’s union are expected to be announced right after the end of the day at 6:00 p.m., as the mobile voting method was introduced for the first time this year.
