Provides that an individual is not disqualified from obtaining benefits caused by a labor dispute, including a strike or other concerted activities of employees at the claimant's workplace, whether or not authorized or sanctioned by a union representing the claimant, but not including a dispute caused by the failure of the employer to comply with an agreement or law pertaining to wages, hour, or conditions of work, after the period of the first 30 days following the commencement of the unemployment caused by the labor dispute.
