§ 22-6-2-15 — Involuntary servitude

Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to
require an individual employee to render labor or service without his
consent, or to make illegal the quitting of his labor or service or the
withdrawal from his place of employment unless done in concert or by
agreement with others. No court shall have power to issue any process
to compel an individual employee to render labor or service or to
remain at his place of employment without his consent. It is the intent
of this chapter only to forbid employees to leave their employment in
concert or to cause a work slowdown or stoppage in concert and to
forbid an employer to lock out his employees in any case where the
resultant interruption of public service would cause severe hardship to
a substantial number of persons.
