There are many issues public service workers, such as teachers, face when they go on strike that affect them and the public.
Write an essay in which you take a position on whether or not teachers should have the right to strike. Remember to use textual evidence from all three passages you read to support your claim.
What is the prompt asking you to do?
Persuade the reader that because of a variety of issues, teachers should or should not be allowed to strike.
Explain to the reader the different reasons a public service worker might strike.
Specify what a strike is and who public service workers are.
Tell the reader about what happened when bus drivers held a strike.
Which example has relevant evidence?
First and foremost, teachers must keep in mind what is best for the community. The source, New York School Bus Strike: Sign of National Pressure on Unions, explains that the members of the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1181, many of which drove school buses, began to strike. Once they began striking many students had to find alternative ways to get to school. This was very time consuming and many parents were infuriated, since their work schedules had been disrupted. Keep in mind that this was all because of bus driver strikes. If a group of teachers strike, the effects would be catastrophic.
The reason why teachers should not be able to go on strike is because they are public sector workers and they get paid a high salary. In the passage “Why Is It Rare For Public Sector Workers To Go On Strike?”, it directly states,”these workers have high salaries, plum working conditions, and generous benefits”.
Which answer does NOT have relevant evidence?
A. In addition, teachers going on a strike doesn't really benefit them and there are other ways to handle the situation. Teachers and other public sectors solve there problems with mediation or arbitration. According the the text Why Is It Rare for Public Sectors Workers to Go on Strike? “ Meditation takes place when an impartial party oversees the negotiation to resolve differences” This shows that their are other options when you disagree with others.
First and foremost,Do you know what a strike is.A strike is when workers decide to refuse their job when they don't get enough pay or the working conditions their in.Some other reasons of striking are unpaid overtime and benefits.Teachers have the right to strike but that can cause bad things to happen.According to “What Is a Strike.a strike occurs when a workers refuses to work until there working conditions improve”.A strike can cause job loss.When people strike it might not be successful.If the employer does not agree with what u want he won't change the rules.This is what a strike is.
