Austria has pretty strong unions.
- FirmwareBurner 3y agoThat doesn't mean Austrian Tesla workers are also unionized in a worker's council. Union busting is quite popular in Austria even by Austrian companies. Check out Anton Paar. You propose unionization there, you get fired on the spot since Austria is basically at-will employment for non-unionized workers. The Metal union is the only union with fangs in Austria, the rest are just paper tigers. And a solidarity strike in Austria, like in Sweden, would be incredibly unlikely as I don't think there's the legal framework for that in Austria, and in general, striking is not really part Austrian labor culture but more like bending over to wealthy industrialists donors to the conservative OVP party, which is why I put my money on France.
