Timeline of strikes in 1992

A number of labour strikes, labour disputes, and other industrial actions occurred in 1992.

Background

edit

A labour strike is a work stoppage caused by the mass refusal of employees to work. This can include wildcat strikes, which are done without union authorisation, and slowdown strikes, where workers reduce their productivity while still carrying out minimal working duties. It is usually a response to employee grievances, such as low pay or poor working conditions. Strikes can also occur to demonstrate solidarity with workers in other workplaces or pressure governments to change policies.

Since 1989, when the political and economic transformation first took off, the number of strikes has remained quite consistently low, with the exception of two periods: 1992-1993 (resistance to the initial wave of industrial restructuring) and 2007-2008 (post-EU accession economic prosperity period, combined with a massive outward migration to the EU-15, which enhanced the bargaining power of employees).
