The reward problem evident in this situation is the production of reward dissatisfaction. Despite management offering a 2% increase in pay, the union representing the workers believed that this did not match the workers' contributions to the firm, indicating that there is a mismatch between the rewards offered and the perceived value of those rewards by the workers. This has led to the workers going on strike, indicating that they are dissatisfied with the rewards on offer.
