Union Negotiation Tactics

Strike action, also called a labor strike, is a work stoppage caused by the mass refusal of employees to work.

Union boycotts are a form of industrial action by a trade union in support of a strike initiated by workers in another, separate enterprise.

Employers are generally motivated to prevent, mitigate the impact of, and undermine strikes when they occur by using a variety of tactics.

Labor trends include a declining union movement in the US, public sector unions, women leaders, and international unions.
