Detailed explanation-1: -If picketing does not involve any violence, it is perfectly legal. Pickets are workers who are on strike that stand at the entrance to their workplace. It is basically a method of drawing public attention towards the fact that there is a dispute between the management and employees.
Detailed explanation-2: -Picketing is constitutionally protected as an exercise of freedom of speech. However, picketing is subject to reasonable regulation. For example, where picketing takes place may be restricted as an unfair labor practice, or a company may be able to get an injunction to prevent irreparable injury caused by picketing.
Detailed explanation-3: -Picketing, though a very important tool of economic coercion in the hands of labour is rarely in the limelight because there is normally no independent right to picket-it has to be undertaken in the furtherance of a strike or any other trade dispute.
Detailed explanation-4: -A picket line is where workers and union reps (’picketers’ or ‘pickets’) stand outside a workplace to tell other people why they are striking. Pickets may also ask people not to: do some of their usual work. go into work.
Detailed explanation-5: -All employees-union or not-have the right to participate in a protected strike, picket or protest. You have a right to strike, picket, and protest regarding work-related issues, but there are limitations and qualifications on the exercise of that right.
