South Korean Labor Group To Strike As Talks With Government Fail Dow Jones Online News, Wednesday, June 03 SEOUL -(Dow Jones)- South Korea's militant umbrella labor group said Wednesday it would go ahead with scheduled nationwide strikes next week as it failed to reach an agreement with the government on thorny labor issues, including layoffs. The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions also said it won't take part in the second round of tripartite labor talks, the government plans to launch later Wednesday with representatives of management and workers. Earlier this week, the confederation had indicated it may call off the strike to help President Kim Dae Jung succeed in his bid to draw more foreign investment during his trip to the U.S. The confederation, which claims a membership of 500,000 in auto, shipbuilding and other heavy industries, had planned to cap a recent series of labor strikes and protests with a large-scale strike on June 10 to protest growing layoffs.
