Tesla Versus Swedish Union Sparks Showdown Over Collective Bargaining
Tesla Versus Swedish Union Sparks Showdown Over Collective Bargaining
Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) shares are trading higher on Tuesday. The EV behemoth, owned by billionaire Elon Musk, reportedly faces escalated tensions as Sweden's most prominent union backs a six-month-old strike by mechanics, amplifying disputes with organized labor, Reuters reported.
週二，特斯拉公司（納斯達克股票代碼：TSLA）股價走高。路透社報道，據報道，億萬富翁埃隆·馬斯克旗下的電動汽車巨頭面臨緊張局勢升級，因爲瑞典最著名的工會支持機械師爲期六個月的罷工，這加劇了與有組織勞工的爭端。
The strike centers on Musk's refusal to sign a collective bargaining agreement, preventing the metal workers' union from negotiating for the entire workforce.
罷工的重點是馬斯克拒絕簽署集體談判協議，這使金屬工人工會無法就全體員工進行談判。
Despite Musk's claim that the labor conflict had subsided, IF Metall maintains the strike persists, the report added.
報告補充說，儘管馬斯克聲稱勞資衝突已經平息，但如果Metall堅持罷工仍在繼續。
"The strike is ongoing and we have no signs of reaching an agreement in the near future," IF Metall head Marie Nilsson said.
IF Metall負責人瑪麗·尼爾森說：“罷工仍在繼續，我們沒有跡象表明在不久的將來達成協議。”
"We have had a few sittings with the Swedish management during April, but ... Tesla has shown little willingness in discussing an end to the conflict," Reuters added.
“四月份，我們與瑞典管理層舉行了幾次會議，但是...特斯拉在討論結束衝突時幾乎沒有表現出任何意願，” 路透社補充說。
According to Reuters, approximately 44 union members, representing roughly one-third of Tesla's Swedish mechanics, have ceased work. Although Tesla does not manufacture vehicles in Sweden, it provides local servicing.
據路透社報道，大約44名工會成員已停止工作，約佔特斯拉瑞典機械師的三分之一。儘管特斯拉不在瑞典生產汽車，但它提供本地服務。
Over a dozen unions have initiated actions in solidarity with IF Metall, with Unionen being the most recent and largest addition to the movement, the report added.
報告補充說，已有十幾個工會發起了聲援IF Metall的行動，其中Unionen是該運動的最新和最大的成員。
"It is fundamentally important to protect our collective agreement system," Martin Wastfeldt, head of negotiations at Unionen, told Reuters.
聯盟談判負責人馬丁·瓦斯特費爾特告訴路透社：“保護我們的集體協議體系至關重要。”
Unionen initiated a blockade on Tuesday, halting all Tesla-related work at DEKRA Industrial AB, responsible for equipment inspections, according to Reuters.
據路透社報道，Unionen週二啓動了封鎖，停止了負責設備檢查的DEKRA Industrial AB的所有與特斯拉相關的工作。
Should Tesla attempt to bypass the blockade by engaging alternative providers, Unionen is prepared to take further action, according to Wastfeldt, Reuters added.
路透社補充說，如果特斯拉試圖通過聘請替代供應商來繞過封鎖，Unionen準備採取進一步行動。
Though the striking figures in Sweden may be modest, the implications loom large, the report stated.
報告稱，儘管瑞典的驚人數字可能不大，但其影響隱約可見。
While Elon Musk did not respond to the Reuters report directly, he poked fun at the company by posting a meme on social media platform X (formerly Twitter).
儘管埃隆·馬斯克沒有直接回應路透社的報道，但他在社交媒體平台X（前身爲Twitter）上發佈了一個模因來取笑該公司。
