美光 union members unhappy with opaque bonus system，vote to secure legal strike rights
Published ・ Source Taiwan | 公視新聞
美光's Taiwan wafer technology workers' union, dissatisfied with the lack of transparency and inequitable distribution in the bonus system, secured the legal right to strike with 99% approval in a membership vote. If the company does not propose improvements, the union will discuss a strike schedule.
Facts
Members who actually voted in favor accounted for as much as 99% of voters.
Taiwan employees likely received only 2.6 months' pay in 2025.
But the CEO received 32.4 months' pay.
10.5% of operating profit as the bonus pool.
A cap of 200% for the performance target achievement rate.
The maximum bonus employees can receive is only 5 months' pay.
Set aside 15% of operating profit.
