way to shoot yourself in the knee, tesla. you could've just paid your workers a decent wage, but now they're making you lose even more money ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
They already pay above the normal workshop wage in Sweden so the issue isn't about that. It's about the collective agreement. You can always go above that, so the argument that they already pay more doesn't hold. It's about worker protections and setting a minimum.
Funny thing is that some tesla representative wanted a meeting with someone from the Swedish government and they flat out refused, saying that this was between the workers and employers unions.
Shows Tesla doesn't have any clue how the labour market works in the Nordic countries.
The biggest irony is that this is what libertarians like Musk say they want: for the state to keep out and have the market regulate. Well, the market is regulating and suddenly he cries about daddy government not intervening.
