70% of employees are in a union. Public opinion won’t sway, it’s literally how the system works there.
They don’t default to something like the US, where an HR department plays the game of “what are you looking to make” and then has a 1 on 1 sparring match with the employee to try and get them for as low as cost as possible.
It’s expected for employers to negotiate a CBA with the sector employees as a group in order to set wages for set (ex 4 year) time-frames. It’s common in, way the US, for there to be situations where an employee makes 2x the wage of someone else, and then talking about wage is a forbidden topic within a company so it’s a secret. That just doesn’t fly there. There’s a cultural focus on consensus beyond the job market - it’s a cultural foundation, and it’s important for everyone in a group to be on with the structure and transparent about the org.
It’s an entirely different system. Many of the metalworkers are already part of the sector union, Tesla just refuses to meet for setting up the CBA. It’s not a union taking over a company or anything like that. The unions are sector based and already exist, and the workers are already members.
