[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] The CJ Logistics branch of the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions' National Courier Workers' Union will begin a partial strike starting on the 26th, following the Lunar New Year holiday.
On the 17th, the courier union stated, "CJ Logistics raised the delivery fee by 122 won per box at the beginning of the new year, but has ignored improving the treatment of delivery workers and has not responded to requests for dialogue and negotiations."
The union explained that about 1,600 union members with the right to strike will participate in this partial strike, refusing tasks such as returns, same-day, and fresh deliveries.
