Unionized workers at Samsung Biologics launched a five-day general strike on May 1, 2026, marking the first labor walkout in the company's history since its 2011 establishment. The union demands a 14% increase in base and performance-related pay, a 30 million won one-off cash incentive, and bonuses equal to 20% of annual operating profit. The company has proposed 6.2% and warns losses could exceed 640 billion won ($433 million). Negotiations failed after 13 rounds despite a court injunction attempt.
Curtis Jones sums up Liverpool’s approach, Eddie Howe’s transfer record under scrutiny and Tammy Abraham shows his worthFor Manchester City, Gianluigi Donnarumma has always been a case of risk and reward. Perhaps only Thibaut Courtois is as fine a shot-stopper as Italy’s Euro 2020 hero, though many goalkeepers are better with the ball at their feet. Claudio Bravo, let alone Ederson, would be unlikely to dither in the fashion that alerted Kai Havertz to the possibility of pressing City’s keeper as close as possible for Arsenal’s goal. Donnarumma was the signing who bucked the Pep Guardiola doctrines, and his goalkeeping has been crucial to City’s revival but such mistakes have always been part of the giant Italian’s makeup. Paris Saint-Germain would not meet his wage demands, and opted for Lille’s Lucas Chevalier, a better ball-player as an ill-starred replacement.
