10 months agoI 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.
In the CBA that IF Metall is trying to have Tesla sign there is a part about support if you lose your job (omställningsstöd). It’s an extra safetynet that, and while it doesn’t promise to lead to a new job, it helps you on the way.
At the moment workers at Tesla doesn’t have this, and that is one of the reasons for the strike.
