I’m not swedish but what are the terms like in the CBA? Will Unions be able to be like “Oh Tesla has good gross margins, how about we force them into an agreement much worse than what Volvo is having” or is it just Elon being Elon?
Just genuinely curious of how things work in Sweden.
It’s the standard IF Metall CBA for car mechanics. It covers things like minimum wage, minimum yearly wage increase (which is usually set to offset inflation, overtime, vacation pay and vacation time (beyond the legal minimum that is) and much, much more. You can find all IF Metalls different CBAs here but they’re all in Swedish though. The one you’d be looking for specifically is, I think, the one called “Motorbranschavtalet”.
Tesla won’t get anything different from what any other car company already has unless they specifically and succesfully negotiate a change to it. Though they don’t have to do that if they don’t want to since negotiations on changes to the CBA happen between employers organisations (which would represent Tesla as well as all the other companies who have signed the CBA) and union organisations (which represent all the unions)
