The labor union of FineTek, a maker of display equipment, and the management reached a labor deal, while two workers staged a sit-in on top of a smokestack at a power plant for more than a year in protest of layoffs. The unionized workers of FineTek had been waging the protest atop the 75-meter smokestack at a combined heat and power plant in Mok-dong(southwest Seoul) for about 14 months, calling on the management to keep its promise on job security. With the deal, the workers ended the protest Friday. The protest marked the longest sit-in on top of a smokestack in the country's history.(source: Yonhap, 1.11)
