sympathy strike

Since Tesla still refused to negotiate with the union, laborers across the Nordic countries launched sympathy strikes against Tesla.

It resulted in a three-month strike by the retail employees union that snowballed into an all-out boycott as other Swedish unions joined in sympathy strikes.

Soon after, sympathy strikes popped up around the country.

After Tesla refused to sign a collective bargaining agreement with 125 of its unionized Swedish mechanics, nearly the entire region has launched sympathy strikes, refusing to do business with the company.

It would mark another expansion of sympathy strikes in the region.
