Context:

On 5 June, students marched very quickly on the streets and stopped traffic using roadblocks.[100] Factory workers skipped work and railway traffic was also blocked.[100] Public transport was also suspended early in the morning. According to British Broadcasting Corporation “ten thousand staff members and workers could not get to work on time”.[101]

@oristarA,
Yes, pretty much. Skipped work tends to be used for a single incident, like an afternoon or a day. You wouldn't tend to use it for anything longer than that.
