CWAO Strike Barometer

Strikes tell us much about the state of the class struggle, including how militant and organised workers are, the main issues they are mobilising around, and which workers are leading struggles against the bosses.

Strike statistics and analyses are therefore critical for anyone interested in building the workers' movement in particular and working class struggle more generally.

Our independently researched live Strike Barometer is updated almost daily as strikes occur.

Our printed edition Strike Barometer: The Analysis of South African Strikes, is compiled and published twice a year. It offers a discussion an opinion based on our live stats over a set period.
