ChainCatcher report, according to Reuters, Micron’s Taoyuan union in Taiwan announced on October 20 that it plans to launch a strike this Thursday to protest disputes over employee bonuses and profit-sharing schemes, and to show solidarity with the Taichung union, which is currently engaged in mediation negotiations with the company. The Taoyuan union’s mediation with Micron broke down in September, and the union received member authorization for a strike in early October. The Taichung union, representing Micron’s largest operational division in Taiwan, is still negotiating with the company and has not yet voted on whether to strike. Micron employs approximately 15,000 people in Taiwan, primarily producing DRAM and high-bandwidth memory (HBM)—key components for AI servers. The Taoyuan union has not specified the duration of the planned strike. Taiwan’s leader Lai Qingde urged both sides to engage in sincere negotiations last week.
