Hyundai Motor union plans strikes on Thursday and Friday

Hyundai Motor's labour union plans to stage strikes for four hours each on Thursday and Friday, a union spokesperson said on Wednesday.

South Korea's Metal Workers' Union, of which the Hyundai Motor union is part, plans to launch a full strike from Dec. 11 unless South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol steps down, Yonhap news agency reported on Wednesday.

Yoon is under fire to resign or face impeachment after he declared martial law only to reverse the move hours later, drawing criticism from various unions and groups.

Hyundai Motor was not immediately available for comment.
