Pronunciation: [ɹɪfjˈuːzɪŋ tə wˈɜːk] (IPA) 
There are several synonyms for "refusing to work."

Another synonym is "boycotting," which can refer to refusing to work for a particular employer or company. "Slacking off" or "shirking" are also synonyms, but they typically carry a negative connotation of laziness or lack of responsibility.
