Preface
This bulletin, continuing an annual feature of the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the field of
industrial relations since 1941, provides a detailed statistical presentation of work stoppages in
1974. The data presented in earlier bulletins have been supplemented by the addition of a
historical record by State, 1934-74 (appendix A). Monthly figures and data for mean and
median duration of stoppages have been revised since the issuance of Summary Tabulations:
Work Stoppages, 1974.
Preliminary monthly 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 request. Preliminary estimates for the entire year are available at the year’s end;
selected final tabulations are issued in the early summer of the following year. The methods
used to prepare work stoppage statistics are described in appendix B.
The Bureau wishes to acknowledge the cooperation of employers and employer
associations, labor unions, the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, and various State
agencies which furnished information for this program.
The bulletin was prepared in the Division of Industrial Relations, Office of Wages and
Industrial Relations, by Frances E. Kanterman. Computer programming and tabulation of
data were developed by William M. Pugh under the direction of Tommy P. Hickman, Office of
Survey Management.

Highlights
The largest concentration of strikes (35 percent)
involved between 20 and 99 workers, with an
additional 26 percent involving 100-249 workers. At
the extremes, the smallest stoppages (between 6 and
19 workers) accounted for only 9.7 percent of the
total number of strikes and the largest (10,000
workers and over) represented only 0.4 percent.
As the legal authority to regulate wage increases
terminated, strikes over general wage changes became
increasingly more prevalent, involving 70 percent of
all strikers and accounting for 81 percent of total
idleness in 1974.
The average duration of strikes ending in 1974
(measured by days idle per worker involved) was 17.3
days. However, the largest percentage of strikes (18.1
percent) lasted between 7 and 14 days, and the
largest group of workers (25.8 percent of the total)
participated in stoppages having a duration of be­
tween 30 and 59 days.
The proportion of stoppages involving AFL-CIO
affiliates had shown a slight but steady decline from
1969 through 1973. Reversing this 4-year trend,
AFL-CIO affiliates accounted for 57.4 percent of all
stoppages in 1974, compared with 55.8 percent in
1973.
Pennsylvania experienced more stoppages (721)
than any other State, with 200 strikes in Philadelphia
and 163 in Pittsburgh. Los Angeles—
Long Beach,
with the highest recorded idleness among metro­
politan areas, was a major factor in California’s
ranking first in idleness among the States, with 6.5
million days away from the job.
As in previous years, heavily industrialized Region
V, which includes 3 of the 5 States with the greatest
strike-related idleness (Illinois, Ohio, and Michigan),
led all other geographic areas with 13.8 million days
off the job in 1974.
Almost 60 percent of the stoppages in 1974
occurred during the renegotiation of an agreement—
relatively higher than the traditional level of 50 per­
cent in this category. These 3,593 strikes accounted
for 75 percent of all workers participating in strikes
and 89 percent of total idleness, a somewhat dif­
ferent distribution than occurred in 1973, when
only 66 percent of all workers and 83 percent of all
days idle were attributable to renegotiation strikes.

Reflecting the broad economic effects of the termina­
tion of wage and price controls on May 1, all major
indicators of strike activity rose markedly in 1974. More
work stoppages occurred in 1974—
6,074—
than in any other
year on record. The increase of 721 stoppages over 1973
was the largest both absolutely and relatively since
1954-55.
Days away from the job due to strikes totaled 48.0
million in 1974, a 72-percent increase from 1973 levels.
This translates into 2.4 working days idle per thousand
(0.24 percent of estimated total working time), well above
the 1.4 and 1.5 days recorded in 1973 and 1972,
respectively, when wage and price controls were in effect,
but equal to or below the levels of 1967-71. Not only did a
larger proportion of the labor force participate in strikes in
1974 than in the 2 previous years, but the average number
of days idle per worker involved increased from 12.4 in
1973 to 17.3 in 1974, well above the 15.8-day average for
the decade 1964-73.
The mean as well as the median duration of stoppages
ending in 1974 increased from 1973 levels: Median dura­
tion rose to a record 14 days in 1974 (from 9 days in 1973)
while mean duration was up 3.1 days, to 27.1 days in 1974,
the highest level recorded for this measure since 1928.

Highlights of the 1974 strike picture:
Strike indicators in May, June, and July of 1974,
the period directly following the termination of
controls, were substantially higher than the compar­
able periods in both 1972 and 1973, when controls
were in effect. Most significant was the total amount
of idleness for those 3 months, 22 million days, an
increase of 127 and 155 percent from the 1972 and
1973 levels.
Although the 27 large strikes (those involving
10,000 workers or more) in 1974 represented an
increase of only two over 1973, idleness resulting
from these stoppages more than doubled.
Mining and contract construction accounted for
almost 29 percent of all stoppages beginning in 1974,
41 percent of the workers involved, and 35 percent of
all days idle. These were the only two industries in
which idleness exceeded 1.0 percent of estimated
total working time, at 2.4 and 1.3 percent, respec­
tively.

Appendix B.

Scope, Definitions, and Methods
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
over time, the figure for the total economy has been carried
back to 1939 (see table 1). The “private nonagricultural”

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.
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.
Methods

The relative measures. In computing the number of workers
involved in strikes as a percent of total employment and
idleness as a percent of total working time, the following
employment figures have been used:

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 and
appendix A.)
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.3

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
city is located. Stoppages in the mining and logging
industries are excluded from metropolitan area data but are
reported by industry and State.
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.”

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
States.4 The procedures outlined in the section on relative
measures also have been used in preparing estimates of
idleness by State.

Sources of information

Metropolitan area data. Information is tabulated separately
for 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
3

For example, the total economy figure for 1974 was computed

by multiplying the average employment for the year by the number
o f working days (79,683,000 X 252 = 20,080,116,000) and dividing
this figure into the total number o f days o f idleness.
4The same procedure is followed in allocating data on stoppages
occurring in more than one industry, industry group, or metropoli­
tan area.




75

Occurrence o f strikes. Information on the actual or
probable existence of work stoppages is collected from a
number of sources. Clippings 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.

Respondents to questionnaire. 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.

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.

Limitations o f data. 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
ing small numbers of workers. Presumably, these missing
