	The Refusal of Work \| libcom.org (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		What 'absenteeism' or 'refusal of work' and 'sabotage' have in common -the fact that people take their own lives into their own hands - is absolutely not strictly limited to the factory, to offices, to enterprises, in one word, to the workplace.
		A 'refusal of modernisation' (which implies a break with many things in the field of relations in the factory) is quite simply followed by a 'refusal to work': one takes the money and goes away.
		The 'refusal of work', the movement of capital and the movement of the class struggle The 'refusal of work' has been the slogan of the bourgeois class and its flunkies since the beginning.

	EHS - Work Refusal Procedures
		The physical condition of the workplace in which he/she works or is to work is likely to endanger himself/herself.
		Until the ministry is notified, the work cannot be reassigned to another worker and the worker must remain near the work station.
		Work refusals can be avoided with a workplace commitment to health and safety, advising workers of hazards, providing safety training, and keeping the lines of communication open to encourage an atmosphere where workers feel free to raise health and safety concerns at any time, knowing management will treat them seriously.

	THE ABOLITION OF WORK
		Work is never done for its own sake, it's done on account of some product or output that the worker (or, more often, somebody else) gets out of it.
		People who are regimented all their lives, handed off to work from school and bracketed by the family in the beginning and the nursing home at the end, are habituated to hierarchy and psychologically enslaved.
		The ancients saw work for what it is, and their view prevailed, the Calvinist cranks notwithstanding, until overthrown by industrialism—but not before receiving the endorsement of its prophets.

	Imminent Danger
		Refusing to do a job because of potentially unsafe workplace conditions is not ordinarily an employee right under the OSH Act.
		However, employees do have the right to refuse to do a job if they believe in good faith that they are exposed to an imminent danger.
		You refused to work in "good faith." This means that you must genuinely believe that an imminent danger exists.

	5. The Refusal of Work \| libcom.org (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The refusal of work - which, as I argued, is central to Marx's proletarian unnamable â€” should not, then, be understood simply as a set of practices, but as a mechanism for the refusal of any plenitude or subject in work, and a continuous engagement against work and its identities.
		Nevertheless, given the lack of familiarity with the critique of work in modern political culture, before considering the development of this politics in operaismo and autonomia it is useful to present a brief overview of the place of the critique of work in radical milieux.
		As I have argued, the refusal of work is a cramping mechanism for the refusal of workers' plenitude and a compulsion to political activity immanent to capitalist configurations, not a simple 'Luddism', or a refusal of 'command' (as something exterior to work itself).

	Refusing Work
		In determining whether or not any work is suitable, the state agency is apt to consider the degree of risk involved to his health, safety and morals, his physical fitness and prior training, his experience and prior earnings, his length of unemployment, and the distance of the work from his residence.
		For a worker seeking work in a new locality, the former wage rate may not be a relevant consideration in determining a suitable wage at all.
		For instance, if the worker is unwilling to accept work fifty miles away because that would make her unavailable in case of emergencies, but is available for work in her local job market, then she may not be unduly restricting her work availability.

	[334 NLRB No. 103] New York State Nurses' Assc. (Mount Sinai Hospital), 2-CG-75
		The underlying issue apparently was her opinion that by volunteering to work overtime, the nurses were exacerbating a short staffing situation and thereby tending to allow the Employer either to justify layoffs or to put off the hiring of staff needed to perform the amount of work required.
		There are a number of cases where the concerted refusal to work overtime, even overtime which is voluntary under a collective-bargaining agreement, has been construed to be a strike, either under some provision of the NLRA or as defined in a collective-bargaining agreement.
