All-out holiday struggle - Issei Kyuka Tousou

Japanese: 一斉休暇闘争 - いっせいきゅうかとうそう

...Therefore, in terms of relations with employers, industrial action that violates union rules does not lose its legitimacy.
[The legitimacy of special types of industrial action]
There are special types of labor disputes, such as wildcat strikes, legal struggles, and simultaneous vacation struggles, so we will touch on the legitimacy of these labor disputes. Wildcat strikes are labor disputes carried out by a group of union members or a subordinate organization of a labor union without following the regular union procedures.

From [Paid Holidays]

...A leave that a worker can take, separate from holidays, for the purpose of rest, entertainment, education, or the development of skills, etc., without losing his/her wages during that period, and as a right, is exempt from the work obligations under the employment contract and is paid.
[Guarantee of the right to annual paid leave]
The new Constitution stipulates in its social rights clauses (Articles 25-28) that the right to rest should be included as an important part of the working conditions to be determined by law (Article 27). The right to annual paid leave (hereinafter simply referred to as the right to annual leave) is a concrete embodiment of the right to rest guaranteed by the Constitution (Article 39 of the Labor Standards Act).

From the Labor Union Law

…The Labor Union Law, the Labor Standards Law, and the Labor Relations Adjustment Law are known as the three labor laws. The Labor Union Law is the most fundamental law governing collective labor-management relations, and is abbreviated as the Labor Union Law. It was enacted on June 1, 1949, and came into effect on the same day.
[History and transition leading up to its establishment]
Although there were efforts to enact labor union laws before the war, about 20 bills were introduced between the Taisho and early Showa periods, but none of them saw the light of day. The old Labor Union Law, which was promulgated in December 1945 immediately after the end of the war and went into effect in 1946, was Japan's first labor union law.
