Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A strike based on a demand for higher wages or better fringe benefits than the employer wants to provide is known as an economic strike. These strikes are aimed at improving the economic conditions of the employees and are usually organized by labor unions. In contrast, other types of strikes, such as jurisdictional and wildcat strikes, are based on conflicts over work assignments and union representation, respectively. A sitdown strike involves workers intentionally taking over the workplace and stopping work, while an economic strike usually involves workers stopping work but not necessarily occupying the workplace.
