Nordische Gewerkschaften vereinigen sich: Norwegen schließt sich schwedischer Tesla-Blockade an

Solidarity Across Borders: Unions Support Swedish Mechanics in a Standoff with Tesla

In a striking display of Nordic unity, Norway’s largest private sector labor union, Fellesforbundet, announced its support for Swedish Tesla mechanics by blocking transit shipments of Tesla cars destined for the Swedish market.

The move, set to begin on December 20, intensifies the ongoing industrial action led by Swedish unions against the U.S. electric vehicle maker, Tesla, reports Reuters.

This solidarity action stems from a dispute that began in October, when Swedish unions, spearheaded by IF Metall, initiated industrial action against Tesla.

The core issue at hand is Tesla’s refusal to sign collective bargaining agreements with its mechanics in Sweden. Such agreements are pivotal for workers, as they cover essential aspects like wages, vacation, overtime pay, and other conditions.

Tesla, however, maintains a policy against collective bargaining, asserting that its employees enjoy comparable or superior terms than those demanded by the Swedish union.

The dispute has already seen significant actions in Sweden, where dockworkers refuse to unload Tesla cars arriving by ship.

This protest has garnered support from various sectors, including electricians, cleaners, postal workers, and some auto component manufacturers, all refusing services to Tesla.

Fellesforbundet’s involvement marks a crucial escalation, highlighting the regional commitment to labor rights and collective bargaining.

Joern Eggum, the leader of Fellesforbundet, emphasized the union’s intention to send a clear message to Tesla, underscoring the right to demand collective agreements as a fundamental aspect of working life in the region.

Adding to the pressure, Denmark’s 3F labor union has also declared its support for the Swedish mechanics. Starting Tuesday, the Danish union announced it would refuse to unload or transport Tesla cars intended for Swedish customers.

These collective actions from Norwegian and Danish unions aim to challenge Tesla’s stance and uphold long-established labor norms in the Nordic region.

While the unions have clarified that their actions would specifically target Tesla cars for the Swedish market, the growing solidarity across Nordic countries signals a robust defense of workers’ rights and the power of collective action in the face of corporate policies.
