Exercise 9

The impact of strikes and lockouts on business activities can be substantial. Since your company is planning to develop operations in the Asian market, you have been tasked with identifying the countries least likely to have strikes and lockouts which could introduce instability at any future facilities. Using information from the International Labour Organization (ILO) to develop your report, locate the ILO's yearbook of labor statistics and identify the three Asian countries with the lowest rate of strikes and lockouts. Be sure to use the most recent data available and include details for each country concerning the sectors most impacted.
