Tesla ends 3-year strike in Sweden by throwing money at it

IF Metall said it's suspending its three-year-long industrial action against Tesla after the firm bought out the Swedish union's striking workers.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has resolved a prolonged industrial action in Sweden by purchasing the striking workers, bringing an end to nearly three years of disruption. The strike, which lasted for over 1,000 days and caused significant operational issues, began in 2023 and aimed to force Tesla to negotiate with the union over pay and working conditions. IF Metall, the union involved, accused Tesla of "systematic strikebreaking" for opting to buy out the striking workers instead of negotiating.
