Workers strike at Daewoo's Romanian shipyard

Seoul: Daewoo's Romanian interest Daewoo Mangalia Heavy Industries may experience delays to its newbuild deliveries following a strike by about 1,000 yard workers over a pay dispute - putting a third of the workforce on hiatus. According to local reports, the workers union at DSME's sister yard is demanding a monthly raise of 300 RON ($87.8) as well as an annual bonus and have dismissed the 40Ron increase they were offered.

DMHI is said to have deemed the strike illegal and filed a court appeal to compel workers to resume their duties.  [17/06/10]
