work stoppage

In its offering, beyond the boilerplate warning that investors should not invest money they could not afford to lose, Finlete cited injuries, illnesses and work stoppages among risks that could derail payments to investors.

Baseball has not lost a regular season game to a work stoppage since 1995, the last time the owners pushed hard for a salary cap.

Since July 1, roughly 450 Republic Service workers represented by the Teamsters in the Boston area have been on strike, and the work stoppage has since spread to involve several thousand workers across the country.

The country's labour ministry has also imposed a mandatory five-hour work stoppage for manual, outdoor workers between 12:00-17:00 on Tuesday in the areas set to see the worst heat.

This work stoppage marked SAG-AFTRA’s second video game strike in less than a decade and second overall strike in roughly a year.
