Construction of Samsung Electronics (KRX:005930) and SK Hynix (KRX:000660) chip plants could be derailed by the ongoing concrete transport workers' strike, Reuters reported Friday, citing local outlets.

The National Ready-Mixed Concrete Transport Workers' Union, which has 8,000 members, started the industrial action on June 9 in Seoul, demanding higher transport rates and other changes, the report said.

Both SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics have seen union members block deliveries from concrete plants, the report said.
