What would an alternative bonanza look like that went not only to core workers but precarious employees and their communities?
The Hynix and Samsung ‘bonanza’ deals have raised a lot of questions about who and what unions fight for in Korea lately. Great for many direct employees but ‘divisionsal’ unionism seems just as bad if not worse than enterprise unionism. Not to mention the plight of undercompensated subcontractors.
