Yes, since 10:00 a while ago, the Headquarters of Lotte Courier, the Union of the National Courier Coalition, went on a general strike.

After commemorating the courier drivers who died this year due to overwork, the company continued to criticize the current situation that is leading to the deaths of the drivers and the inappropriate actions of the company.

Subsequently, a march was held to urge non-unionists to participate in the action.

We have now established strike camps and have begun to negotiate indefinitely.

The main reason for the strike is that the company is doing excessive work by increasing the quantity and reducing the commission for each number of packages.

The union noted that although the situation varies from region to region, it has gradually reduced the shipping fee of 968 won per package to courier drivers by nearly 150 won over three years.

On the other hand, he pointed out that the number of shipments has increased and is in danger of death, requiring delivery at 4 am and 5 am.

Also, the sorting work and working environment are lower compared to other couriers.

They said they are the only courier service provider that pays for the cost of loading and unloading packages.

Consequently, the union had negotiated several times with each agency, but in the end, explained that the negotiations broke down with the answer that it was the authority of the headquarters.

Eventually, through a general strike, Lotte Courier headquarters came to demand that the problem be resolved.

The union plans to join the 50 or more LOTTE messengers in the region tomorrow afternoon to hold an indefinite camp here.

Most concerning is the confusion of the delivery service.

How big is the strike?

[기자]

First, depending on the region, it is expected that there will be no worrisome confusion.

There are around 10,000 LOTTE parcel delivery drivers across the country and around 250 members of the KCTU’s LOTTE courier union are taking part in this strike. In the case of the metropolitan area, around 100 out of every 5,000 drivers participate in the strike.

The gentlemen who participated in the strike are going to demand that they act together against the non-union gentlemen.

The scale of the strike itself is unlikely to increase as easily as legal procedures are required for strikes, such as the absence of consultations after the first negotiations with management.

The company said that 2.5% of all items will participate in the strike, so there will be no problems, but said it will ensure that delivery is not interrupted by adjusting the number of people per region to reduce damage to the goods. consumers.

Regarding the request of the union, he explained that problems such as the loading of loading and unloading costs will be improved.

However, it is said that there was no reduction of commissions, and subsidies paid to agencies with insufficient supply were reduced due to the normalization of the supply.

Although some applications have been accepted, it is hoped that management and the union will have no choice but to face major demands, fees and subsidies for a time.
