wage disputes

Salary negotiation fights

Wage disputes are conflicts between workers and employers over pay—how much, how often, or under what conditions.

They range from individual complaints about unpaid overtime to collective bargaining breakdowns that lead to strikes.

The wage dispute shut down the factory for three weeks.

Labor boards and courts often resolve wage disputes when negotiation fails.
