Types of Strikes Regarding Industrial Disputes in India

Abstract

The strike is a weapon in the armoury of the middle class to fight collectively and to pressurize the employer. It is a weapon which is made use of by the labour class to safeguard their interests, both economic and cultural. However at times, the working class has abused this armoury to harass the employer as well. Hence, whether a strike should be identified as a right or not is a question worth debating. According to Ludwig Teller, the word strike in the broad significance has a reference to a dispute between an employer and his worker, in the course of which there is a concerted suspension of work. There are number of ways through which a strike can be conducted which has been elucidated in this article below.
