A labor dispute refers to a controversy between management and labor over various aspects of the workplace, including working conditions, wages, job descriptions, and fringe benefits.
A primary boycott is a union's organized effort to encourage members and supporters to refuse to use, purchase, or transport an employer's products, goods, or services as a form of protest against the employer. Unlike a secondary boycott, this type of boycott focuses only on the entity directly involved in the labor dispute.
An unauthorized strike, also known as a wildcat strike, occurs when employees cease work without the authorization of their union or outside the terms of the collective bargaining agreement. These types of strikes are typically spontaneous and are not sanctioned by the union leadership.
