What is another word for unofficial strikes?
Pronunciation: [ʌnəfˈɪʃə͡l stɹˈa͡ɪks] (IPA) 
Unofficial strikes, also known as wildcat strikes, spontaneous strikes, or lightning strikes, are a form of protest in which workers walk off the job without the approval of their union or employer. These strikes often arise from disputes over workplace conditions, conflicts with management, or grievances with the union. The lack of official authorization makes these strikes risky for workers, who risk disciplinary action or even termination. Despite the potential consequences, these strikes can be effective in bringing attention to workplace issues and forcing management to address them. Other related terms for unofficial strikes include sit-down strikes, slowdown strikes, and work-to-rule strikes.
