SEOUL (Reuters) – South Korea ordered striking truckers in the steel and petrochemical industries to return to work on Thursday, widening a back-to-work order beyond the cement industry amid a prolonged nationwide truckers strike.
Last week, the government issued a “start work” order to force 2,500 striking drivers in the cement industry back on the road.
