Work-in

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A work-in is a form of direct action, where a group of workers whose jobs are under threat resolve to remain in their place of employment and continue producing without pay. The intention is usually to show that their place of work still has long-term viability, or can be effectively self-managed by the workers.

A famous work-in was the Upper Clyde Shipbuilders work-in of 1971.
