    90% of Tesla’s workforce in Sweden voted against the Union

    I can’t find anything to support this claim — do you have a reliable reference, by any chance?

      My understanding is that all service centers in Sweden are still servicing cars so at the very least a decent % of Tesla employees are not on strike while media makes it seem like most service technicians at Tesla are on strike.

      I also can’t find any source on % of Tesla employees on strike, so it’s difficult to gauge other than what media is reporting on, most of which don’t actually focus on Tesla employees but on other unions in Sweden refusing to work with Tesla.

      This is the only thing I could find coming from a Tesla employee: https://www.na.se/2023-11-16/tesla-ar-den-basta-arbetsgivare-jag-haft

      It’s paywalled and not in English but it’s been translated by a few ppl.

      Can’t find anything about a union vote in Sweden. I feel like there isn’t enough info about what the Tesla employees want to really form an opinion here.

        That’s not the same as a union vote. It’s also not particularly surprising that non-union workers would not strike… since they’re not in a union. The whole point of this action is to give those workers collective bargaining leverage — the power to strike, effectively.

      I apologize, I’m parroting info I had read from multiple posts on social media, but I cannot find anything to back this up. Crossing out what was posted above.
