Hanjin will never give up Yongdo shipyard
“Hanjin will never give up Yongdo shipyard and leave it,” the shipyard’s chairman, Jo Nam-Ho, promised while speaking this morning at City Hall in Busan.
Chairman Jo announced: “Establishment of competitiveness comes first for Hanjin to revive and rehire retired employees. We will help as much as we can to fund the retired for their children’s school expenses, etc. and respect the voluntary retirees.”
Jo was speaking as Hanjin Heavy’s yard gets back to business following an acrimonious six month strike.
Jo emphasized, “Agreements with labour union will be thoroughly observed and current employment will be maintained until normalization. Also, we will do our best to normalize in three years and take our family who left us with no choice back to Hanjin.”
