“We have given a notice...If we don’t get any positive action from Hyundai management or from the labour department, we will fix the date for going ahead with a strike after December 5,” CITU state general secretary A Soundararajan said.
The CITU-affiliated Hyundai Motor India Employees Union, which has support of about 300 workers, have threatened to go on strike demanding reinstatement of 80 dismissed workers.
Asked if the strike call will not amount to a breach of MoU signed with the management in July, he said: “At that time they told us they would reinstate 80 dismissed employees but they reinstated only 20”.
