Meh. They can last because so few are striking I guess?
Zz
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?
If there’s no organic means for that to happen
unions are different over there.
https://nordics.info/show/artikel/trade-unions-in-the-nordic-region
Trade unions play a more important role in Nordic politics and economics than they do in most other countries. This is largely a result of their organisational success, which has made them key actors in policymaking as well as in collective bargaining.
The Nordic countries continue to have the highest union density in the world. In 2016, of all blue and white-collar workers, membership of trade unions amounted to 52% in Norway, 65% in Finland, 84% in Iceland, 66% in Sweden, and 67% in Denmark. By comparison, between 20 and 30% of employees are generally unionised in most other European Union countries - the exception is Belgium, which has a similar organisational structure to the Nordics - and 10% in the United States. A much larger percentage of employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements, 80-90% in the Nordic countries.
You didn’t answer the question though. If the employees are happy with their compensation, then why is the mafia striking?
Interesting to watch. I wonder if Tesla will just bail. Taking their ball and going home would be the quintessential Elon move.
There’s like 3 employees striking lol. This sun is full of bots and politically compromised tesla haters.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Tesla just moved out
It could also sink the company in Sweden if people stop buying the product because of the union spat.
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.
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 the same ones in every thread too, lol. Two or three people who really hate anything that could hurt their investment, rights be damned.
Why won’t someone think of the poor billionaires.
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
Or maybe some people are familiar with the UAW.
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)
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.
Oh ffs you shills with the teslarati nonsense
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.
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.
it’s because american minds have been colonized by false exceptionalism
source: am american, can’t wait to leave
Bullshit corporatism, the new book, should be a vaccine against this
When you spend so much time on reddit, that “America bad” is your entire world view.
Our unions are not the same. If they were people would likely have a different perception and membership would be increasing.
Anything we can do to help you achieve your goal?
Can’t wait to see you leave. And of course remain reliant on American industry in whatever declining region you enter.
How long does the union continue to pay ex employees when Tesla decides to just hire non union replacements?
Or is that somehow illegal in that country?
500 years? That seems hard to believe on its face. How could they possibly sitting on that much money?
It’s a union that prepares to handle strikes of hundreds of thousands of workers at the same time. This strike is about ~100 workers, how could they NOT have that money?
How much are their union dues to have 500 years of strike fund? Did some wealthy person die and find a strike fund?
What does this have to do with EVs in general? Looks like a rule breaking political post to me.
It’s about Tesla, an EV maker
Fuck corporate overlords regardless of owner
China made BYD and Nio will dominate the market because of events like this.
Lots of news about a market that is 1.5% of Tesla’s total sales
Why do they need jobs if they can strike for 500 years?
Because the union is around 300k members and supporting them all would only have the funds for one year of striking. This is about 100 workers, the union can support them forever.
its literally 6 workers, calm your Scandinavian tits.
