Tesla Stands Firm In Sweden Despite Ongoing Strike: 'Deeply Committed To Continuing Our Journey'
Portfolio Pulse from Anan Ashraf
Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) has communicated its commitment to the Swedish market despite an ongoing strike by IF Metall, a workers' union representing Tesla mechanics. The strike, which began in late October, is over the lack of collective bargaining agreements, a standard in Swedish labor relations. Tesla highlighted its recent opening of a V4 Supercharger in Sweden and the success of its Model Y, which is the best-selling car model in Sweden this year. The strike has escalated, with dockworkers, cleaning staff, and electricians joining in, affecting vehicle offloading, showroom maintenance, and charging station servicing.
