It’s not about unionizing. You don’t unionize in Sweden. Our unions cover sectors.

It’s about the collective agreement. This is the standard here in Sweden. Basically a company will negotiate with a union and they will set the minimum pay and all of the benefits for a period. Usually 4 years then they renegotiate. When a company has signed a CBA then it’s illegal for workers to strike.

This creates a more even playing field and gets rids of worker abuse. While creating stability in the market. Something that had worked for hundred not thousands of companies here in Sweden for over 100 years.

We’ll see what transportstyrelsen will do about this. They have rules which say that they can only give out plates through PostNord.

The court hasn’t told them to ignore these regulations. They just told them that they have 7 days to make sure that Tesla gets its plates. But they are as you said forced to by their own rules to only give them out through PostNord because of a contract they have.

They haven’t really refused though. It’s the workers that are sympathy striking.

Idk if one guy is a reliable source.

Pretty much all other Swedish sources says that the big majority have gone on strike.

Maybe the boy those in Örebro didn’t go on strike I guess. If it’s true.

This article doesn’t seem to understand that the reason for why the union is trying to get a CBA is because the employees specifically asked for one.

I’ve seen this argument many times and I don’t understand it at all.

Let’s say I work at Tesla. We have worse pay and worse benefits than competitors in this sector. I’m not in a union but some of my coworkers are and they want a fair wage and benefits.

They go on strike after a vote. Since I’m not in a union I continue to go to work.

Then why would I be mad that the union is pushing something that would benefit me? Higher pay and better benefits…

Only an idiot would dislike it.
