The Strike actions of any workers are generally motivated by their dissatisfaction and grievances experienced while working.
Therefore, the goal of most workers when going on a strike is to somehow put the pressure on government to change their policies or in some other way pressure their employers to improve the conditions in which they work, payment etc.
Government employees do not strike, it is illegal to do so and union leaders who allow strikes get jailed. Private company strikers walk out either to protest alleged violations of labor law (unfair labor practice strikes) or to pressure the employer for money in contract negotiation (economic strikers).

Workers strike either to protest alleged violations of labor law (unfair labor practice strikes) or to pressure the employer to agree to money issues in contract negotiation (economic strikes). All strikers can be replaced if they walk out. Economic strikers can be PERMANENTLY replaced.
