South Korean truck drivers begin unlimited national strike action for Safe Rates
Today in South Korea truck drivers have begun unlimited strike action. The ITF-affiliated Korean Public Service and Transport Workers’ Union Cargo Truckers’ Solidarity Division (KPTU-TruckSol), estimates that 15,000 members participated in strike rallies held in 16 locations across the country today, and several thousand more drivers, both members and non-members, joined the strike in solidarity. The impact of the strike is already being felt at ports, petrochemical complexes, and other logistics hubs, where freight transport has slowed or stopped all together.
