It’s a little more nuanced I’d say. For once; strikes are supposed to be related to labor-stuff.

There’s a court called the “workerscourt” (arbejdsretten) in Denmark. It deals with strikes etc. an unlawful can be called to an end by this court; and all participants in an illegal strike can be ordered to pay a rather significant amount for each hour not-working.

So it’s really rather regulated.

Some sectors aren’t allowed to strike at all - under no circumstances. Workers here get extra benefits and a great retirement plan, but no right to strike.
