-- About 37,000 unionized Samsung Electronics (KRX:005930) workers plan to participate in a rally on Thursday in South Korea, Reuters reported on the same day.
The protest will be held at the South Korean company's chip complex in Pyeongtaek, the report said.
In March, unionized Samsung workers authorized a strike in May over wage disputes.
Shares of Samsung rose more than 2% in recent trade.
