(aj) Striker is anyone involved in a strike or a concerted stoppage of work by employees, including stoppage by reason of the expiration of a collective-bargaining agreement, and any concerted slowdown or other concerted interruption of operation by employees. Employees who are prevented from working by a strike but are not participating in a strike are considered nonstrikers. Nonstrikers who are eligible for food stamps include, but are not limited to, the following:
(1) employees whose work place is closed by an employer in order to resist the demands of employees, such as a lockout; or
(2) employees who are unable to work as a result of striking employees, such as truck drivers who are not working because striking newspaper pressmen prevent newspapers from being printed; or
(3) employees who are not part of the bargaining unit on strike who do not want to cross a picket line due to fear of personal injury or death; or
(4) employees who went on strike but who were exempt from work registration the day prior to the strike, other than those who are exempt solely on the grounds that they are employed; or
(5) employees whose jobs are no longer available because permanent replacements have been hired by the company. However, the employees will be considered strikers until such time as their jobs are no longer available.
