Being on strike is considered a "fault of your own" in most cases even if you personally voted against the strike.

If you were fired for gross misconduct, your termination is probably your "fault." Note that gross misconduct has to be something serious, like stealing or putting the company in jeopardy. If you were simply fired for being lazy, incompetent, stupid, etc., that generally does not count as a fault of your own.
