How would you manage an industrial action/ strike from your staff against your business organization?

[King Belieal]

Industrial actions and strikes are part of the rights of employees of any organization. It always happens when negotiations break down with the employer. What would you do if your staff decide to go on strike for one reason or the other?

Would you sack all the striking workers for contempt?

You would incur the wrath of the public if you sack your staff because they had a strike. The best thing is to negotiate with them.

I think the best strategy is to negotiate with them. Sacking is a lose-lose situation. In some cases, government's labor department is involved in a large-scale strike.

I would look for a way to resolve the issue, stacking them won't change anything, in the future the new staffs would still go on strike.

The best bet is to negotiate with them after finding out what the issues are. You try to resolve issues as a good leader and not sweeping them under the carpet.

A company that I know tried to implement "No Work, No Pay" when their workers went on strike. They ended up losing all their customers.

Exactly that's the best way cause the truth of the matter no customer would wait for you, once your workers go on strike they would go to another place that is functioning.

Yes that is what they need to know. There's always a chain reaction. You can bring a boomerang when you tackle an issue very well.

I think you can avoid constantly strikes on your business company by ensuring that the staffs are happy at the workplaces.

Before staff go on strike, there must have been something they have been trying to communicate with the owner and he or she is not listening.

 

[Min George]

Business owners should never allow industrial disagreements with staff to result in industrial action. It can mess the reputation of a business badly.

 

[King Belieal]

Most times, strike happens as a result of misunderstanding between the top management and the staff. The top management calling for a dialogue can ease everything.

Strikes are being carried out by staffs for bargaining their pay increase and improvements of some working conditions for that matter.
