These data include all work stoppages known to the Bureau
o f Labor Statistics and various cooperating agencies involving six
workers or more and lasting a full day or shift or longer. Figures
on workers involved and man-days idle include all workers made
idle for as long as one shift in establishments directly involved in
a stoppage; they do not measure the indirect or secondary effects
on other establishments or industries whose em ployees are made
idle as a result of material or service shortages.
The terms "work stoppage1' and "strike" are used interchange­
ably in this article and include lockouts.

Mar. 2, and a 2 - day strike Apr. 25-26, involving more than 5, 000 workers.

The President's Executive Order sp ecifica lly named the Evendale, Ohio, plant, which makes jet engines for the phantom
jet fighters being used in Vietnam by both the Air Force and the Navy, but also provided that the Board could look into the other
strikes at GE plants as it saw fit. (Approximately 30 ,000 em ployees o f other GE plants also stopped work Oct. 17. )

8 Aggregate figures on workers and strike idleness are rounded to three significant digits.
Figures to the right o f the third
significant digit appear as zeros; the last digit is always rounded to zero. To illustrate: an unrounded figure o f 5 ,0 1 4 ,0 0 0 man-days
would appear as 5,0 1 0 ,0 0 0 ; an unrounded total o f 26,457 would be presented as 26,500; and a figure o f 493 workers would appear
as 490.
Totals and percentages, however, are computed from unrounded figures.
