There has been a marked increase in the number of strike actions taken by workers in China. The manufacturing industry still accounts for most of these strikes, but there has been a noticeable increase across the construction industry. In China’s slumping property market, property developers are faced with increased creditors and workers are the last to be paid. Another area where workers have been taking strike action relates to demands for social security payments.
