The strike of Seoul city buses has ended after two days, and many citizens are breathing a sigh of relief at the news that normal operations will resume from the first bus on the 15th. This strike was caused by conflicts arising from wage negotiations with the Seoul Bus Union, leading to significant disruption for commuters. While it is fortunate that a dramatic agreement has been reached, experts express concerns that this resolution will not lead to a fundamental resolution of the underlying conflicts. You can find a clearer flow in the following explanation.
The Seoul city bus strike has ended after two days, and bus operations will normalize from the first bus on the 15th. The labor-management negotiations held at the Seoul Regional Labor Relations Commission in Munrae-dong on the afternoon of the 14th lasted over 11 hours, culminating in a dramatic agreement late at night.
As a result of this agreement, the bus operations that had been completely halted will resume from the first bus on the morning of the 15th. Previously, the Seoul Bus Union had initiated a full strike from the first bus on the 13th due to unresolved differences in wage negotiations and collective agreements. This led to approximately 7,000 buses stopping, causing significant chaos for commuters.
The complete halt of Seoul city bus operations for two consecutive days is considered a very rare occurrence. While there have been partial strikes or legal compliance struggles in the past, it is unusual for all bus routes to come to a standstill.
Although a dramatic agreement was successfully reached in a short period, experts analyze that this resolution has not led to a fundamental resolution of the underlying conflicts. As the interests between labor and management have not been completely resolved, there are concerns that similar conflicts may arise again in the future. The city of Seoul will need to establish ongoing communication channels and management measures to prevent the bus labor-management relationship from becoming unstable again.
