    Workers go on strike for reasons such as higher compensation, improved working conditions, shorter hours, or to protest unfair treatment. Philippine labor law gives employees the right to form unions and engage in collective bargaining. There are different types of strikes, including sit-down strikes, general strikes in support of other industries, and economic strikes over wages. While the right to strike is important, laws also seek to protect basic employee rights and penalize unfair labor practices by employers.
