HELSINKI (Reuters) – Denmark’s 3F labour union stated on Tuesday it’s going to assist Swedish mechanics of their strike motion towards Tesla (NASDAQ:), and can refuse to unload or transport vehicles made by the U.S. auto firm for patrons in Sweden.
“Like the companies, the trade union movement is global in the fight to protect workers,” 3F Chair Jan Villadsen stated in a press release, including that Sweden’s IF Metall union had requested 3F to assist.
The strike by Danish dockworkers and lorry drivers solely impacts vehicles which might be meant for the Swedish market, the union stated.
Swedish labour teams have been taking industrial motion towards Tesla since October in a bid to power the automobile producer to signal collective bargaining agreements with mechanics.
