Summary:
A work stoppage may be a euphemism for a strike but is not a definition. A work stoppage may be caused by a strike but equally by a lock-out or even by a fire or explosion. A very brief work stoppage is caused by a fire-drill. The kind required is one due to a labour dispute.
The kind of stoppage of work amounting to a loss of UI benefits is one due to a labour dispute. A strike is certainly a manifestation of a labour dispute and the strike was, in and of itself, a work stoppage.
