While IF Metall has unsuccessfully tried to resume negotiations, Tesla announced that collective agreements are no way forward for them.

But while he may refuse to negotiate a collective agreement, Swedish dockers have responded by refusing to handle Tesla&#8217;s import, and now cleaners by refusing to clean Tesla sites. This powerful act of solidarity with Tesla workers is about protecting the Swedish model, where collective bargaining ultimately sets working conditions. In Sweden, 88% of the workforce is covered by collective agreement. That\u2019s why Fastighets is committed to support IF Metall in the conflict until an agreement is in place.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cThis question is fundamental to our successful Swedish model.
