Strike Funds

Strike funds are financial resources set aside by labor unions or workers’ organizations to support members during strikes or labor disputes. These funds provide financial assistance to workers who may lose income while participating in strikes, ensuring they can sustain themselves and their families. The goal of a strike fund is to empower workers to demand better wages, benefits, or working conditions without the immediate pressure of financial hardship. Strike funds are usually accumulated through member contributions or union dues, demonstrating solidarity and collective strength among workers in pursuit of their rights.
