What Are The Different Forms of Strikes?
1. LEGAL STRIKE – one called for a valid purpose and conducted through means allowed by law.
2. ILLEGAL STRIKE – one staged for a purpose not recognized by law, or if for a valid purpose,
conducted through means not sanctioned by law.
3. ECONOMIC STRIKE – one staged by workers to force wage or other economic concessions
from the employer which he is not required by law to grant (Consolidated Labor Association of the
Phil. vs. Marsman and Company, 11 SCRA 589)
4. ULP STRIKE – one called to protest against the employer’s acts of unfair labor practice
enumerated in Article 248 of the Labor Code, as amended, including gross violation of the collective
bargaining agreement (CBA) and union busting.
5. SLOWDOWN STRIKE – one staged without the workers quitting their work but merely
slackening or by reducing their normal work output.
6. WILD-CAT STRIKE – one declared and staged without filing the required notice of strike and
without the majority approval of the recognized bargaining agent.
7. SIT DOWN STRIKE – one where the workers stop working but do not leave their place of work.
An industrial or labor dispute includes any controversy or matter concerning terms or conditions of
employment or the association or representation of persons in negotiating, fixing, maintaining,
changing or arranging the terms and conditions of employment regardless of whether the
disputants stand in the proximate relation of employer and employee. (Article 212 (1) Labor Code,
as amended by Section 4, R.A. 6715)
