2 Industrial Action Industrial action is any action, such as a strike or work- to-rule, taken by employees in industry to protest against an employer seeking to change working conditions. Industrial action is taken to influence employer decisions on pay, working hours, redundancies etc.

3 An overtime ban. Employees just work basic hours, and refuse to do any extra work. This is a useful tactic if the employer has a lot of work on and is trying to meet high levels of demand

4 A work-to-rule – a go-slow With a work-to-rule workers stick very closely to every rule in the workplace, especially health and safety rules. This slows down production, reducing productivity and output.

5 Strikes Strikes are a withdrawal of labour. An all-out strike is called as a very last resort when negotiations break down. Both sides have much to lose - workers lose income whilst they are striking, the employers lose profits and gain unhappy customers.
