Hyundai’s labor union opposes deploying humanoid robots in factories without a formal agreement to ensure job security. The plan follows Hyundai’s intention to introduce Atlas robots and expand production capabilities by 2028, raising concerns about potential job losses and profit motives behind automation. The union demands management agreement before any robot deployment, emphasizing the threat of an “employment shock.”
