A labor dispute refers to a situation where work is suspended for more than one working day (8 hours) due to a disagreement between a labor union and an employer regarding the determination of working conditions, and the union side begins to refuse to work.

Disputes not related to improving work conditions, such as politically motivated strikes, were not counted.
