Here’s how much the Swedish union “cares” about workers: The head of the Swedish Trade Union would rather see those workers without jobs than have Tesla not be in a union. DISGUSTING.
"In an interview, Susanna Gideonsson, who heads the Swedish trade union federation fighting Tesla, sounded remarkably confident. “This will end with the employees winning a collective bargaining agreement, one way or another,” she said. And if they don’t? “Then Tesla can leave the country.” "
That’s a denial of the obivious fact that If tesla leaves those worker will be without a job… At Tesla. If Tesla were to shut down it’s business in Sweden, what would happen to the jobs of those people who currently work there (all of them, and not just the mechanics)?
Your seem to be inferring the workers could find jobs elsewhere which is not… insightful. Who would get them those jobs? The union? The union didn’t get them the jobs they have now so…
Is it easy to be cavalier with someone else’s job? It comes down to the scenario’s Fact (they’d have no job at Tesla) Versus the Speculation (They could find another job… somewhere).
If Tesla kicks them out then union will pay them and support them until they find new job. Unions do offer support to members when finding new job especially if previously mentioned event would occur. It would probably be pretty high priority for unions to help those people to get new job.

Well at the very least, the income insurance from the union would cover them for the next few years while they look for a job. All they need to do is to submit a monthly report that they in fact still don’t have a job. They don’t need to speculate about them finding a new job when they have them covered regardless. But keep fearmongering.
Also the union can very well find them new jobs. It’s not like the demand for mechanics who can repair Teslas would disappear. One of the many workshops that already have a CBA would pick up the demand, and they would then hire those mechanics.
It’s not the employers that create jobs. It’s the demand for goods and services.
In the CBA that IF Metall is trying to have Tesla sign there is a part about support if you lose your job (omställningsstöd). It’s an extra safetynet that, and while it doesn’t promise to lead to a new job, it helps you on the way.
At the moment workers at Tesla doesn’t have this, and that is one of the reasons for the strike.

That doesn’t say anything about the workers not having jobs.

If there was a CBA in place these workers would get help finding new jobs. So absolutely, the union care about them having jobs.
