The New Strike Manual is Updated and Available

The IAM is proud to announce the release of its updated Strike Manual, a comprehensive guide designed to support members, locals and districts before, during, and after a strike.

This easy-to-use resource covers every step of the process-from strike authorization votes and legal requirements to communications strategies, picket-line operations, and member support. The manual reflects the latest best practices and lessons learned, ensuring our members have the tools they need to stand strong and united.

"IAM members know that preparation is key to winning a fair contract," said IAM International President Brian Bryant. "This new Strike Manual gives our locals and members the knowledge to plan, protect and prevail."

The updated Strike Manual is now available to IAM officers and members through the IAM Communications Department and vLodge .
