SEOUL, ⁠March 24 (Reuters) - Samsung ⁠Electronics' management and ‌its South Korean workers' union have agreed ​to resume talks ⁠on bonuses, ⁠the union said in ⁠a ‌statement on Tuesday.

The ⁠union, representing nearly 90,000 ​workers ‌accounting for more ⁠than ​70% of the company's workforce ⁠in South Korea, ​had voted last week to authorise a ⁠strike, raising the risk of production disruption at ​the world's ⁠biggest memory chipmaker.
