The leader of Samsung Electronics' largest labor union has successfully survived a confidence vote following criticism over his handling of this year's wage negotiations.

Samsung Electronics' largest labor union has lost its majority status just two months after legal recognition, as non-chip division workers quit in protest of a wage deal that favored semiconductor employees.

Samsung Electronics' largest labor union has called off its planned strike, putting a tentative wage agreement to a vote among its members. The decision follows a breakdown in earlier wage talks that had threatened the company with its first-ever major strike.
