Swedish Transport Workers' Union stops all waste management at Tesla workshops

Report this content

The swedish union IF Metall has asked the Swedish Transport Workers' Union for further support in the conflict with Tesla. We therefore announce a sympathy action in the form of a blockade against all handling of waste and garbage at Tesla's workshops in Sweden.

The sympathy action includes a blockade against all kinds of waste management at Tesla's workshops in Sweden. The blockade will enter into force on Sunday, December 24 at 00.01 a.m., unless IF Metall and TM Sweden (Tesla Sweden) have signed a collective agreement before then.

"This type of sympathy action is very rare. We are using it now to protect the Swedish collective agreements and the safety of the Swedish labor market model. Tesla cannot ignore the norm on the Swedish labor market" says Tommy Wreeth, President of the Swedish Transport Workers' Union.

The sympathy measure is valid until IF Metall and TM Sweden AB have reached a collective agreement, or when the Swedish Transport Workers' Union withdraws the sympathy measure in whole or in part. Employers who try to evade the blockade will be subject to extensive industrial action after notice.

Tesla workshops in the following locations are affected:

Malmö, Mölndal, Hisingsbacka, Umeå, Norrköping, Örebro, Uppsala, Upplands Väsby, Segeltorp, Huddinge and Jönköping.
