Whipsaw strike information


A whipsaw strike (also called a selective strike)[1] is a strike by a trade union against only one or a few employers in an industry or a multi-employer association at a time. The strike is often of a short duration, and usually recurs during the labor dispute or contract negotiations—hence the name "whipsaw".

  1. ^ In Germany, the term is "schwerpunktstreik".
