overtime ban
No additional shifts
An overtime ban is a form of industrial action in which workers collectively refuse to work hours beyond their standard contracted time.
Unlike a full strike, employees continue their regular duties but decline extra shifts or extended hours, reducing productivity while maintaining basic pay: The nurses' overtime ban led to cancelled surgeries.
It's a pressure tactic that disrupts operations without the financial sacrifice of a complete walkout.
