SEOUL: Tens of thousands of unionised workers at South Korea’s Hyundai Motor staged their first full strike on Monday for more than a decade after negotiations over a wage increase stalled. Nearly 50,000 workers at Hyundai Motor’s three plants across the country — including the main one in the southern city of Ulsan — walked off the job throughout Monday, said a spokesman for its labour union. The day-long stoppage is the first full strike at the company since 2004. The workers would also stage a six-hour partial strike from Tuesday to Friday, the union spokesman said.
