Blockade is being extended to Hydro Extrusions which supplies the Berlin Factory.

If they’re striking them and not allowing them to Supply Teslas factory in Berlin, you can be sure Tesla will be finding a new supplier for whatever that part is.
This and the last TÜV report really don’t paint a nice picture for Tesla.
Being the most failed car under 3 years in the MOTs is striking, beating Dacia by quite a margin.

In the latest news, the Dacia Sandero is now a reliable vehicle… and on that bombshell…
The # of Scandinavians brigading these posts is stupid.
What? It’s about Swedish workers why wouldn’t they chime in?
It’s one and the same thing. Do you think Tesla is going to bear the cost of the increase salaries? No. It is going to raise the prices and the general population has to pay more for the same car lmao
so a swedish mafia try to force something on a company and its employees. An agreement that nobody wants except a powerful entity who had been never asked to interfere, but they like to show their strength. Maybe it is rather a show of strength to the Chinese owners of Volvo? That would make more sense…
What are you talking about?
Anybody with the right mind in the USA should vote for the union ! The 🐑 only would believe stock options are better 🤣
China made BYD and Nio will dominate the market because of events like this.
Lol imagine admitting you’ve been making everyone give you way too much money, and pointing out you could fund the raises they want by just not stealing their money in the first place with your racket
I think you are misdunderstanding the situation. They have all this money because the union has 300,000 members that has contributed for years. This strike is very small so only 130 people are using that money at the moment.
If the whole union went on strike, the money wouldn’t last that long. Maybe a single year.
That makes more sense, I only saw the headline. My bad
Zz
When will people understand that striking works ‘save’ businesses from their own greed… if a business doesn’t pay their employees correctly. Those employees (who do the actual work) are bitter, they deliberately lower their effort and diligence, they leave, the company has a high rate of employee turnover, new employees are costly to train and aren’t immediately as productive or as skilled… this malcontent degrades a company over time. The workers want more money so they are happy… and continue to work there… thus allowing the company to prosper. They are doing the management’s job for them.
Oof. There are some really salty people in these comments already. Labor unity is a beautiful thing. Workers should always have power over their employer.
It’s crazy how many people are here simping for their overlords.
The employees can get stock with their employees stock options, and become part owners of the company. That’s far better than refusing to work unless you get exactly what you want.
Ironically this is a much more free market approach, however, than the way unions work in the US, especially in states that don’t have right-to-work. The unions in Sweden are just as much free market participants as businesses and live and die by their ability to provide values to their clients (workers)
It’s the same ones in every thread too, lol. Two or three people who really hate anything that could hurt their investment, rights be damned.
Isn’t it also jalousy for some people who don’t have an union to represent them?
Are the Tesla employees even striking? All I’ve seen so far is stories that the actual employees aren’t striking but a bunch of tertiary companies are.
Well, where have you looke öd for information? Swedish newspapers or some sort of filtered version?
“But so far, none of the car mechanics working here have chosen to join the strike.”
~Dagans Arbete: Industry Workers NewpaperNot to imply no-one has joined, but there’s evidence it’s a minority of employees.
According to Tesla less than 10% have chosen to strike.
There’s like 3 employees striking lmao. When pointing out facts everyone on here just labels us as investor shills instead of addressing the actual facts.
130 of Teslas own employees (mechanics) are on strike. About half their workforce in Sweden. Around 400-500 mechanics in other companies are on sympathy strikes, meaning they wont work on Teslas, not on Teslas dime anyways. Source all major Norwegian news outlets.
Why won’t someone think of the poor billionaires.
Oh no how would they afford their yatchs
Or their superyachts. Or rocket ships. How can they be expected to live with just a few dozen of each?
Now they have to wait a couple of weeks before they can afford it.
This sub is a Tesla shill sub. Nothing short. And the 7 or so adamant Tesla propagandists, I can’t use the cult name because the mods will ban me, show up to every single one of these threads with the same parroted information.
LOL what a conspiracy
Interesting to watch. I wonder if Tesla will just bail. Taking their ball and going home would be the quintessential Elon move.
Volvo/polestar will be happy with this outcome. XD
Idk Scandinavia is big in EVs i dont think itd make sense to miss out on so many sales, and it would probably impact their sales in like Norway aswell.
And Denmark and Finland.
Plus every existing Tesla in Sweden that needs repairs is fucked as long as the strike continues. If Tesla wants non-union personnel to repair them then they’ll have to ship them out of sweden. Provided they can even get them out of sweden as the transport companies and ports also have union blockades against Tesla
I mean the Tesla workers seem content with what they currently have and don’t want to strike or unionize. If there’s no organic means for that to happen, what exactly is their goal here?
don’t want to strike or unionize
So that’s why they joined a union? Because they don’t want to unionize?
anyone remember when the first propaganda articles came out denying this strike existed and all the swedish workers were refusing to strike because they were so happy?
lol
That’s still the case. So few Tesla employees are in fact striking that barely nothing changed for Tesla. That’s why LO expanded the strike to include unrelated car shops, the post office and various other companies who are now refusing to service Tesla vehicles and work with Tesla.
What this means is that many owners of Tesla vehicles can’t have the tires on their vehicles changed to winter tires, which is a dangerous and deeply irresponsible action on the side of the unions. If this continues, people will die, and the blood will be on LOs hands. Very weird situation, similar to idiots gluing themselves to the road to help the environment, thereby blocking ambulances and letting people die.
Maybe Tesla should sign that collective bargaining agreement then?
