Abstract
Freedom of expression is protected in all constitutions and we did not find any constitution that prevented this freedom or restricted it explicitly, and to know the concept of strike, highlight and clarify the right of the public employee to claim his right to strike, and explain the justifications and prohibitions of the strike for the public employee, the researcher has followed several methodologies to reach these goals, including the descriptive and comparative approach.
