Tesla is currently fighting against the union IF Metall in Sweden, where almost 90% of all metal workers are a part of the union. Sweden has a long history of unionization, it is deeply ingrained in swedish culture.

A strike was put in effect today, with 130 mechanics for Tesla shops.

The 7:th, the large transporting union will step in with a sympathy strike and refuse to deliver new Teslas in Sweden.

Tesla is planning strike breaking, that is bringing in other people to do the striking employees' work.

While technically not illegal, that hasn't happened on a large scale in Sweden since an agreement in 1938.
