<P> A sympathy strike is, in a way, a small scale version of a general strike in which one group of workers refuses to cross a picket line established by another as a means of supporting the striking workers . Sympathy strikes, once the norm in the construction industry in the United States, have been made much more difficult to conduct due to decisions of the National Labor Relations Board permitting employers to establish separate or "reserved" gates for particular trades, making it an unlawful secondary boycott for a union to establish a picket line at any gate other than the one reserved for the employer it is picketing . Sympathy strikes may be undertaken by a union as an organization or by individual union members choosing not to cross a picket line . </P> <P> A jurisdictional strike in United States labor law refers to a concerted refusal to work undertaken by a union to assert its members' right to particular job assignments and to protest the assignment of disputed work to members of another union or to unorganized workers . </P> <P> A student strike has the students (sometimes supported by faculty) not attending schools . In some cases, the strike is intended to draw media attention to the institution so that the grievances that are causing the students to "strike" can be aired before the public; this usually damages the institution's (or government's) public image . In other cases, especially in government - supported institutions, the student strike can cause a budgetary imbalance and have actual economic repercussions for the institution . </P> <P> A hunger strike is a deliberate refusal to eat . Hunger strikes are often used in prisons as a form of political protest . Like student strikes, a hunger strike aims to worsen the public image of the target . </P>
