To summarize: Yesterday, dockworkers began their blockade after giving notice a while back. The electricians and maintenance workers gave notice of sympathy strikes yesterday, refusing to do repairs of Tesla's charging stations and maintenance work at their facilities. Today, the Union of Service and Communications Employees put Tesla on notice, refusing to process mail and packages related to the company. Did I miss any union? It's quite hard to keep up with the (very predictable) development right now.

Hamnarbetarförbundet has joined Transport, so now both the dockworkers union have joined

    Indeed, I wonder if Unionen, who almost went on strike with Klarna, will also join in on some way. Surely there must we many Unionen members working in relation to Tesla as well Also wonder if/when any other Nordic union will join in. Eg the dockworkers union in Finland or such.

      Yeah, other Nordic unions is an interesting thought that has crossed my mind as well. Tesla, Amazon and other American companies that refuse to conform to the local customs either is or will be a problem for everyone in the region, so there's at least some incentive for them to join in. Unionen would be a very welcome addition to the list, as would Finansförbundet. I expect we'll see a steady flow of notices this week. Fingers crossed for these two, definitely. These arrogant foreign CEO's thinking they can come to our nation and ignore the customs is so nonchalant that an example needs to be made. Imagine the reaction to a Swede trying to dictate US politics without the approval of its citizens...

      Transport union in Norway is considering to join, to prevent Tesla from shipping their cars to Sweden through Norway. I would be surprised if any of the big unions in any Nordic country stays out of this for long. Allowing Musk to win this would set a very bad precedent. https://e24.no/naeringsliv/i/XbkJ3E/tesla-streik-i-sverige-kan-nekte-lossing-ved-norske-havner https://e24.no/naeringsliv/i/XbkJ3E/tesla-streik-i-sverige-k...
