Social Sciences - Human Resources / unions
English term or phrase: picket line
A strikebreaker is someone who continues to work during strike action by trade unionists or temporary and permanent replacement workers hired to take the place of those on strike. Strikebreakers are commonly given derogatory terms like scab and blackleg. The act of working during a strike – whether by strikebreakers, management personnel, non-unionized employees or members of other unions not on strike – is known as crossing the picket line, regardless of whether it involves actually physically crossing a line of picketing strikers. Crossing a picket line can result in passive and/or active retaliation against that working person.

piket - u štrajkaškoj praksi skupina štrajkača određena da dežura, nadzire, prati tok štrajka

Piketing (Picketing - u prevodu: Postavljanje štrajkačkih straža) je okupljanje manje ili veće grupe zaposlenih ispred proizvodnih hala ili prodajnih mjesta poslodavca kako bi ubijedili radnike neštrajkače i novoangažovane radnike, koji se još nazivaju i štrajkolomci ili štrajkbrejkeri (Strike-breaker), da se pridruže štrajku kako bi se na poslodavca vršio ekonomsko-društveni pritisak. Dakle, piketing je način vršenja dodatnog pritiska.
