Tesla strike in Sweden now involves Denmark, may spread to Norway and Finland — “Just like companies, the trade union movement is global in the fight to protect workers,” says chair of Danish union::Tesla is locked in a titanic struggle with Sweden’s largest labor union. The result could have repercussions around the world.
Elon musk behaves like a narcissist, so he could threaten to withdraw Tesla from all 4 Nordic countries, just because he is butthurt.
If that should happen, I’m personally OK with that too. We don’t want foreign companies that threaten our right to unionize.
There are plenty of other EV options now too so no need for Tesla if they don’t want to be fair to their workers.
Thousands of Teslas may become unrepairable e-waste though.
Become?
*EU RtR intensifies*
Wait, what if Tesla is completely pushed out of EU?
*Ukrainian hackers noises*
And nothing of value is lost. Good riddance.
There’s no reason yet to leave all 4. All they need to do is leave Sweden and this ends.
I’m not sure what the situation is like in the other countries in terms of CBAs, but they haven’t gone on strike internally for lack of agreement. It’s only sympathy strikes elsewhere right now.
