Preface
This bulletin, an annual feature of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics since 1941, provides
a detailed statistical presentation of work stop
pages in 1977. Appendix A provides a historical
record by industry group.
Preliminary estimates of the level of strike
(or lockout) activity for the United States as a
whole are issued about 30 days after the end of
the month of reference and are available on re
quest. Preliminary estimates for the entire year
are available at year end; selected final tabula
tions are issued in the early summer of the
following year. The methods used to prepare
work stoppage statistics are described by ap
pendix B.
The Bureau wishes to acknowledge the
cooperation of employers and employer
associations, labor unions, the Federal Media
tion and Conciliation Service, and various State
agencies.
The bulletin was prepared by Marcy Freed
man in the Division of Industrial Relations, Of
fice of Wages and Industrial Relations.

Work Stoppages, 1977
Major stoppages were not as frequent as in many
earlier years (table 4). Between 1976 and 1977 the
number dropped from 23 to 18 (table 5). Major stop
pages accounted for far fewer days idle in 1977- 9.9
million days compared with 14.0 million days in 1976.
All of the major stoppages in 1977 lasted at least a week,
but in 1976 a third of the major stoppages were shorter
(table 3).
Summary
The three major measures of strike activity-the
number of strikes, workers, and days idle-declined
from 1976. The number of strikes was, nevertheless, the
fifth highest reported during the past 50 years. Some
5,506 stoppages began during the year, compared to
5,648 the previous year. The number of workers par
ticipating in strikes in 1977 declined by 16 percent, to
2.0 million; they made up about 2.4 percent of the total
work force, down from 3.0 percent the year before.
Idleness declined from 37.9 to 35.8 million days and the
percent of estimated working time lost due to strikes
was 0.17 percent (1.7 days idle pei; thousand), down
from 0.19 percent in 1976.
A larger number of strikes occurred during contract
renegotiations in 1977 than in 1976, reflecting increased
bargaining during the year. More than eight-tenths of
these stoppages involved economic issues.
Major issue
Economic issues continued to be the most important,
accounting for three-fifths of the strikes that began in
the year (table 11.). They include general wage changes,
supplementary benefits, wage adjustments, and hours
of work. Except for 1974, economic issues were they key
points of contention in a larger proportion of strikes in
1977 than in any year since 1961. Fewer workers were
involved in these disputes than in most previous years,
however. Most of the economic disputes (more than
nine-tenths) involved general wage issues.
Plant administration issues were the second major
cause of strikes, largely because of a large number of
disputes in coal mining (table 12). Most of the idleness
from plant administration disputes this year resulted
from the walkout of 170,000 coal miners after the
United Mine Workers contract expired in December.
Among the major stoppages in 1977, 10 involved
economic issues, 5 involved administration issues,
and 1 involved working conditions. The longshore
dispute arose over the handling of containerized cargo
which posed a threat to job security.
Duration
Strikes tended to be longer in 1977 than in previous
years (table 1). The average duration of strikes was 29
days, the highest recorded by the Bureau since data were
first collected in 1927. Just under half the strikes (48.4
percent) in 1977 lasted 14 days or longer, while in 1976
half the strikes ended by the eleventh day.
About one-fifth of the strikes that ended in 1977
lasted between 14 days and a month (table 3); almost
one-third of these strikes were in wholesale and retail
trade, contract construction, and nonelectrical
machinery (table 25).
Mining disputes accounted for about three-fifths of
the strikes that were shorter than 4 days. Between 1976
and 1977, strikes in the 1- to 3-day category declined by
438, 411 of which were in the mining industry.
Monthly pattern
Strike indices are influenced by the timing of contract
negotiations. About two-thirds of the workers whose
contracts expired in 1977 had agreements which ter
minated between March and September;1similarly, twothirds of the strikers walked out during this period.
Idleness peaked in December because the major
bituminous coal strike began in this month. But the
number of strikes was lowest in December, continuing a
pattern that has been observed since 1950.
Size
Following a historical pattern, about half of the
strikes involved fewer than 100 workers (table 6).
Strikes in the nonmanufacturing sector were smaller
than those in manufacturing. For instance, almost twothirds of the strikes involving fewer than 20 workers oc
curred in nonmanufacturing industries-primarily in
construction and wholesale and retail trade.
Most of the smaller disputes occurred in non
manufacturing industries; so did most major disputes
(those involving 10,000 workers or more). The bulk of
these walkouts were in mining-8 out of 14.
Contract status
As usual, most strikes (59 percent) occurred after the
expiration or reopening of an agreement (table 10).

strike. Major issues still unsettled at the time the strike
began included the Bituminous Coal Operators Associa
tion’s demand that fines be levied on workers engaging
in wildcat strikes and union demands for the right to
strike over local grievances.2
In transportation equipment, days idle were boosted
by two major stoppages in the aerospace industry. In
addition, there were numerous short stoppages in the
motor vehicle and equipment industry, and longer stop
pages in shipbuilding and repairing. Idleness was slight
ly below the 1976 level, but higher than in the five
preceding years (appendix A).
In construction, although nearly half of the workers
in ihajor collective bargaining units (1,000 workers or
more) were covered by contracts which expired in 1977,3
the number of strikes in this usually strike-prone in
dustry declined for the third year in a row. The propor
tion of estimated working time lost to strikes was the
lowest since 1963, the result, perhaps, of employment
gains by nonunion firms. Unions kept their demands
moderate and in some areas even agreed to cuts in com
pensation in an effort to reduce unemployment among
their members.4 Major stoppages in the industry fell to
3, from a high of 11 in 1974 (table 6).
Despite heavy bargaining schedules, significantly
fewer workers in the transportation, communication,
electric, gas, and sanitary services group struck than in
previous years, bringing the proportion of estimated
working time lost in these industries to the lowest level
since 1964 (appendix A). Nine-tenths of these workers
struck during contract renegotiations (table 9).
While strikes in general declined slightly, renegotiation
disputes increased, and economic issues accounted for a
larger proportion of these strikes (86 percent) than of all
strikes (61 percent).
The next largest group of strikes occurred during the
term of agreement, with 65 percent occurring over ad
ministration issues in the coal industry. A substantial in
crease in strikes occurred at firms where no contracts
were in effect (from 59 in 1976 to 129 in 1977); strikes
involving union organization and security matters were
responsible for this jump.
Among the major stoppages in 1977, all but the
1977-78 coal strike occurred during the contract term.
The other major strikes occurred after contract negotia
tions failed.
Union affiliation
Unions affiliated with the AFL-CIO called 55 percent
of the strikes in 1977, compared with 39 percent for
unaffiliated unions, and 3 percent for professional
employee associations. Idleness among AFL-CIO af
filiates was almost twice that among nonaffiliates.
However, six major strikes in the bituminous coal in
dustry accounted for 40 percent of the idleness among
nonaffiliates.
Strike activity among AFL-CIO affiliates has declin
ed relative to nonaffiliates since 1965, but affiliated
unions have initiated at least half of the strikes in each
year. These strikes involved over half of the workers
who struck each year until 1976, when they involved on
ly 40 percent of the workers. In 1977 the proportion of
workers rose to 47 percent.
The role of unaffiliated unions increased during these
same years. Although the number of strikes, workers,
and days idle among nonaffiliates declined in 1977,
strike activity remained well above that of the sixties, in
absolute and relative terms.
Professional employee associations have also increas
ed their involvement in recent years. The proportion of
strikes initiated by professional associations ranged
from 1.2 percent to 2.5 percent during the 1966-69
period and from 2.2 percent to 5.0 percent during the
1970-77 period.
Occupation
As in the past, production and maintenance workers,
who are the most highly unionized, were involved in
more strikes than other occupational groups (table 15).
Only in the government sector were professional and
technical employees well represented among strikers.
All three major strike measures for professional and
technical workers fell in 1977 for the second consecutive
year. Among professional and technical workers in
government, the decline was due to decreased strike ac
tivity among teachers (table 19). Between 1976 and
1977, the number of teacher disputes declined by 20 per
cent, teachers on strike by 16 percent, and days idle by
15 percent.
industry
Four industries accounted for 50 percent of the strikerelated idleness during 1977 (table 14). In order of days
lost, these industries were mining, transportation equip
ment, contract construction, and nonelectrical
machinery.
The disproportionately high idleness levels in mining
stemmed from the timing of contract negotiations in the
coal and copper industries, and from a large number of
major stoppages in coal. The December coal strike was
the largest of the major stoppages in 1977. More than 3
million days were lost during the 1977 portion of that

number of workers involved, and Ohio and Penn
sylvania had the most days idle (table 21). Production
and maintenance workers called nine-tenths of the
strikes in these States (table 22).
One-third of all days idle resulted from stoppages in
Region V, which includes Illinois, Indiana, Michigan,
Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin. None of the States
had fewer than 100 strikes. Seven-tenths of the idleness
in Michigan during the year resulted from the major
iron ore strike in August. Strikes in government ac
counted for a third of Wisconsin’s idleness, while strikes
in nonelectrical machinery and mining boosted idleness
in the other States in the region.
The proportion of working time lost (the idleness
rate) was higher in West Virginia (Region III) than in
any other State-and three times the rate for the States
of Washington (Region X) and Kentucky (Region IV),
which were next in line. Miners made up nine-tenths of
the workers who struck in West Virginia.
Six metropolitan areas, one more than in 1976, ex
perienced over 100 stoppages: Detroit (153), Pittsburgh
(135), Chicago (132), Los Angeles-Long Beach (128),
New York City (128) and Philadelphia (126) (table 24).
These areas were also among the highest in workers and
days idle. Los Angeles-Long Beach and Seattle-Everett
were the only metropolitan areas to incur more than a
million days of idleness.
where disputes often were not formally resolved.
Nine-tenths of the renegotiation disputes and over
eight-tenths of the stoppages during initial contract
bargaining ended in formal settlements (table 29). More
than half of the strikes during the contract term were
short protest or sympathy disputes which resulted in no
formal settlement.
Impasse procedures
A number of approaches have been used in dealing
with collective bargaining impasses; typically these in
volve the use of outside parties.
In 1977, mediation was used in half the disputes (table
28). Of these, government agencies mediated 96 percent.
Numerous governmental agencies have been established
for this purpose at the Federal, State, and local levels.
In a small number of cases the combined resources of
the Federal and State governments were brought into
play.
As in prior years, strikes that took place during con
tract renegotiations were more likely to involve media
tion than those that occurred during initial contract
bargaining or during the contract term. Mediation was
used in 69 percent of the renegotiation disputes.
Workers terminated 504 strikes with the understand
ing that unresolved issues would be handled at a later
date in ways agreed upon by the parties. Information
was available for 356 of these strikes. Direct negotia
tions were agreed to in 26 percent of the cases and refer
ral to a government agency in 24 percent.
In disputes stemming from the negotiation of a first
agreement or the attempt of a union to gain recognition,
direct negotiations were requested in just over half of
the settlements. In renegotiation disputes, settlements
provided for direct negotiations a little less than half the
time. Other means were most frequently employed to
resolve mid-contract disputes; only one-fourth of these
settlements called for direct negotiations.
Type of settlement
Three-fourths of the stoppages ended with either a
formal settlement or an established procedure for
handling the remaining differences (table 31). More
than half of the stoppages that ended without a formal
settlement were short protest or sympathy disputes, and
almost all of these-96 percent-involved miners.
Formal agreements resolved all issues in more than
eight-tenths of the economic disputes, compared with
four-tenths in noneconomic disputes (table 30). A large
number of the noneconomic disputes were in mining,

1 The number o f stoppages and workers relate to stoppages beginning in
the year; average duration, to those ending in the year. Days of idleness in
clude all stoppages in effect. Workers are counted more than once if they
were involved in more than 1 stoppage during the year.
Available information for earlier periods appears in Handbook o f Labor
Statistics, 1978 Reference Edition, BLS Bulletin 2000 (1979), tables 151-56.
For a discussion of the procedures involved in the collection and compilation
o f work stoppage statistics, see BLS Handbook o f Methods, BLS Bulletin
1910 (1976), chapter 27.
2 Figures are simple averages; each stoppage is given equal weight
regardless of its size.
3 Agricultural and government employees are included in the total
employed and total working time; private household, forestry, and fishery
employees are excluded. An explanation o f the measurement of idleness as a
percentage o f the total employed labor force and o f the total time worked is
found in “ Total Economy Measure of Strike Idleness,” Monthly Labor
Review, Oct. 1968.

Dispute over whether incentive pay was a “ na
tio n a l” o r “ lo c a l” issue. The Experim ental
Negotiating Agreement (ENA) that regulates
steel bargaining prohibits strikes over “ na' tio n a l" issues. In early Nov., the steel industry
and the union modified ENA to provide for bind
ing arbitration of future disputes over whether
issues are national or local. Then a uniform in
centive plan was incorporated into contracts
with each of the companies providing incentive
bonuses to at least 75 percent of the employees
of each ore company, beginning in November
1979. Employees e ligib le for incentive pay
would no longer receive the 30-cent attendance
bonus. Bonus would be continued for other
w orkers employed then but not for w orkers hired
in the future. Other local issues were resolved
on the company level. (See Current Wage

pay on Christmas and New Years. Other miners
honored the picket lines. As a result, some coal
firms paid the holiday rate (time-and-a-half) to
virtually all of their miners. Freeman and others
did not pay all their miners the holiday rate.
There was no formal settlement.

1 Mean duration is calculated only for stoppages ending in the year, and is
weighted by multiplying the duration of each stoppage by the workers involved.
1 See footnote 3, table 1.
’ The number of stoppages reported for a major industry group or division may
not equal the sum o f its components because individual stoppages occurring in two
or more groups have been counted in each. Workers involved and days idle have
been allocated among the respective groups.
4 Fewer than 5Q.
1 Idleness due to stoppage(s) beginning in prior year(s).

1 Includes data for each metropolitan area in which 5 stoppages or more began in 1977. Some
metropolitan areas include counties in more than one State, and hence, an area may equal or exceed
the total for the State in which the major city is located. Stoppages in the logging and mining industries
are excluded. Stoppages occurring in more than one metropolitan area are counted separately in each
area affected; the workers involved and days idle are allocated to the respective areas.
2 Included in the Chicago, Ill-Northwestern Indiana Standard Consolidated Area.

* Totals In this table differ from those in tables 1 and 2 and 6-24 because these stoppages end
ed during the year, and thus include idleness occurring in prior years.
* The number of stoppages reported for a major industry group or division may not equal the
sum of its components because individual stoppages occurring in two or more groups have been
counted in each. Workers involved and days idle have been allocated among the respective
groups.
* Includes other finished products made from fabrics and similar materials.
4 Excludes ordnance, machinery, and transportation equipment.
5 Includes professional, scientific, and controlling instruments; photographic and optical
goods; watches and clocks.
• The situations reported here have, for statistical purposes, been deemed to fall within the
Bureau's definition of a work stoppage. This decision does not constitute a legal determination
that a work stoppage has taken place in violation of any law or public policy.

Appendix B. Scope, Definitions,
and Methods
Methods
idleness as a percent of total working time, the following
employment figures have been used:
From 1927 to 1950, all employed workers were in
cluded in the base, except those in occupations and
professions in which little, if any, union organization
existed or in which stoppages rarely, if ever, occurred. In
most industries, all wage and salary workers were included
in total employment except those in executive, managerial,
or high supervisory positions, or those performing profes
sional work the nature of which made union organization
or group action unlikely. This measure of employment also
excluded all self-employed persons; domestic workers;
workers on farms employing fewer than six persons; all
Federal and State government employees; and officials,
both elected and appointed, in local government.
From 1951 to 1966, the Bureau’s estimates of total
employment in nonagricultural establishments, exclusive of
government, were used as a base. Days of idleness com
puted on the basis of nonagricultural employment (exclu
sive of government) usually differed by less than one-tenth
of a percentage point from that obtained by the former
method, while the percentage of workers idle (compared
with total employment) differed by about 0.5 of a point.
For example, the percentage of workers idle during 1950
computed on the base used for the earlier years was 6.9,
and the percentage for days of idleness was 0.44, compared
with 6.3 and 0.40, respectively, computed on the new base.
From 1967 to 1973, two estimates of employment were
used, one based on the wage and salary workers in the
civilian work force, and the other on those in the private
nonfarm sector.1 The new private nonfarm series closely
approximated the former BLS series which, as noted,
excluded government and agricultural workers from em
ployment totals, but accounted for idleness by such
workers while on strike. The old method had resulted in an
increasingly distorted measure of the severity of strikes; the
likely growth of strike activity among government and
farmworkers would have distorted the measure even more
in the future. The “total economy” measure of strike
idleness now included government and agricultural workers
in its employment count as well as in the computation of
idleness ratios, but excluded forestry, fishery, and private
household workers from the base. To facilitate comparisons
The relative measures. In computing the number of workers
involved in strikes as a percent of total employment and

Scope
It is the purpose of this statistical series to report all
work stoppages in the United States that involve six workers
or more and continue for the equivalent of a full day or
shift or longer.
Definitions
Strike or lockout. A strike is defined as a temporary
stoppage of work by a group of employees (not necessarily
members of a union) to express a grievance or enforce a
demand. A lockout is a temporary withholding or denial of
employment during a labor dispute to enforce terms of
employment upon a group of employees. Because of the
complexity of most labor-management disputes, the Bureau
makes no attempt to distinguish between strikes and
lockouts in its statistics; both types are included in the term
“work stoppage” and are used interchangeably. The terms
“dispute”, “labor-management dispute,” and “walkout”
are also used interchangeably.
Workers and idleness. The figures on the number of
“workers involved” and “days idle” include all workers
made idle for one shift or longer in establishments directly
involved in a stoppage. They do not account for secondary
idleness—
that is, the effects of a stoppage on other
establishments or industries whose employees may be made
idle as a result of material or service shortages.
The total number of workers involved in strikes in a
given year may include double counting of individual
workers if they were involved in more than one stoppage
during that year. (Thus, in 1974, the Bureau recorded some
460,000 bituminous coal and lignite mining workers as
participating in strikes, while 165,000 workers were em
ployed in the industry.)
In some prolonged stoppages, the total days of idleness
are estimated if the number of workers idle each day is not
known. Significant changes in the number of workers idle
are secured from the parties for use in computing days of
idleness.

over time, the figure for the total economy had been carried
back to 1939 (see table 1). The “private nonagricultural”
measure excluded agricultural and government workers
from employment totals and these groups were also
removed from strike figures in arriving at a percentage of
nonagricultural working time idle.
Beginning in 1974, government workers have been added
to employment and idleness ratios. (See table 21.)
The differences in the various measures are illustrated in
table B-1 in which the components of each measure and the
methods of computation are set forth.
“Estimated working time” is computed by multiplying
the average employment for the year by the number of
days typically worked by most employed workers during
that year. In these computations, Saturdays (when custom
arily not worked), Sundays, and established Federal holi
days are excluded.2
Sources o f inform ation
Duration. Although only workdays are used in computing
total days of idleness, duration is expressed in calendar
days, including nonworkdays.
State data. Stoppages occurring in more than one State are
listed separately in each State affected. The workers and
days of idleness are allocated among each of the affected
State.3 The procedures outlined in the section on relative
measures also have been used in preparing estimates of
idleness by State.
Metropolitan area data. Information is tabulated separately
fot the areas that currently comprise the list of Standard
Metropolitan Statistical Areas (SMSA’s) as defined by the
Office of Management and Budget and, in addition, for a
few communities historically included in the strike series
before the current list of areas was compiled. Information is
published only for those areas in which at least five
stoppages were recorded during the year.
Some metropolitan areas include counties in more than
one State, and hence, statistics for an area may occasion
ally equal or exceed totals for the State in which the major
Unions involved. For this purpose, the union is the
organization whose contract was involved or which has
taken active leadership in the stoppage. Disputes involving
more than one union are classified as jurisdictional or rival
union disputes or as involving cooperating unions. If
unorganized workers strike, a separate classification is used.
However, the tabulations of “workers involved” include all
who are made idle for one shift or longer in establishments
directly involved in the dispute, including members of other
unions and nonunion workers. Information is presented by
major affiliation of the union, i.e., AFL-CIO, or, if there is
no affiliation, by the designations “independent,” “single
firm,” or “no union.”
76
Occurrence o f strikes. Information on the actual or
probable existence of work stoppages is collected from a
number of sources. Dippings on labor disputes are obtained
from a comprehensive coverage of daily and weekly
newspapers throughout the country. Information also is
received regularly from the Federal Mediation and Concilia
tion Service. Other sources of information include State
boards of mediation and arbitration; research divisions of
State labor departments; local offices of State employment
security agencies; and trade and union journals. Some
employer associations, companies, and unions also furnish
the Bureau with work stoppage information on a voluntary
cooperative basis, either as stoppages occur or periodically.
2
For example, the total economy figure for 1974 was
computed by multiplying the average employment for the year by
the number of working days (79,683,000x252=20,080,116,000)
and dividing this figure into the total number of days o f idleness.
The same procedure is followed in allocating data on
stoppages occurring in more than one industry, industry group, or
metropolitan area.
ing small numbers of workers. Presumably, these missing
strikes do not substantially affect the number of workers
and days of idleness reported.
To improve the completeness of the count of stoppages,
the Bureau has constantly sought to develop new sources of
information on the probable existence of stoppages. Over
the years, these sources have probably increased the
number of strikes recorded, but have had little effect on the
number of workers or total idleness. As new agencies or
organizations having knowledge of the existence of work
stoppages are established or identified, every effort is made
by the Bureau to establish cooperative arrangements.
R esp o n d en ts to questionn aire. A questionnaire is mailed to
each of the parties reported as involved in work stoppages
to obtain information on the number of workers involved,
duration, major issues, location, method of settlement, and
other pertinent information.
Although the Bureau seeks to obtain
complete coverage, i.e., a “census” of all strikes involving
six workers or more and lasting a full shift or more,
information is undoubtedly missing on some strikes involv
