(1) Definitions.

(a) The term "strike" includes any strike or other concerted stoppage of work by employees (including a stoppage by reason of expiration of a collective bargaining agreement) and any concerted shutdown or other concerted interruption of operation by employees.

(b) The term "participating in a strike" means an actual refusal in concert with others to provide services to one's employers.

(2) Eligibility Factors.

(a) If a parent with whom the children live is participating in a strike, the entire assistance group is ineligible for as long as the parent is on strike. The parent does not have to be a member of the assistance group to cause ineligibility.

(b) If an assistance group member other than a parent is participating in a strike, that individual is ineligible for assistance as long as she/he is on strike.

(c) If a payment of Families First benefits has already been made for any month(s) in which a parent or other assistance group member participated in a strike as of the last day of the month, the payment (or the individual's share) for the entire month constitutes an overpayment subject to recovery.
