Jan. 13 (Bloomberg) -- Two Samsung Electronics Co. factory workers committed suicide this month, South Korean police said.
The workers jumped off company dormitories on Jan. 3 and Jan. 11, Chae Hong Cheol, a spokesman for Chungnam Provincial Police Agency said in a telephone interview today. They worked at Samsung’s liquid-crystal-display factories in the province, he said.
Samsung regrets the incidents, Nam Ki Yung, a spokesman for the Suwon, South Korea-based company said.
The company will consider expanding regular health checkups and psychiatric consulting for employees, Samsung said on its official blog. Samsung is the world’s largest maker of LCDs.
