Astrike notice(ornotice to strike) is a document served by members of atrade unionor an analogous body of workers to anemployerornegotiatorstating an intent to commit an upcomingstrike action.The document largely contains:
- an overview ofgrievancesand conditions
- a statement that negotiations with the employer have failed
- an intended time and duration for thestrike
- advice to prepare for the impact of the strike and return to the negotiating table at the earliest
A strike notice is usually issued to an employer or negotiators after union leadership and participating workers have agreed on the set terms of a strike action.
