 Sept. 15, 2025 | MIGRANT WORKERS | The raids at a Hyundai battery plant in Georgia earlier this month shone a spotlight on Hyundai’s labor practices, including exploitation of vulnerable migrant workers. …An autoworker at Hyundai’s Montgomery assembly plant, who asked to be anonymous, commented, “I know that Hyundai Montgomery uses only Korean contractors, and that’s for a reason. Why can’t the company hire local union workers to build the plant and keep workers safe?” Hyundai already has a terrible safety record and a history of evading unions, racial discrimination, and employing children at its factories and suppliers. “In South Korea, labor strife in auto plants, often violent, is as routine as the daily lunch break,” quipped one reporter.
