    Strikes are a powerful tool used by trade unions and workers to pressure employers to accept their demands. A strike occurs when a group of workers collectively stop working in an industry. According to law, a strike is a cessation of work by employees in an industry acting together, or a concerted refusal to work or accept employment. Strikes allow workers to protest things they see as unfair, such as low wages, lack of benefits, or poor working conditions, in order to force employers to address their problems and demands. Common causes of strikes include dissatisfaction with company policies, issues with salaries and incentives, inadequate pay increases, unjust dismissals, withdrawn concessions, and disputes over working hours, leave, bonuses, and minimum wages.
