Check Elon’s pockets
I mean, it sounds like he was making a joke out of it. Like, seriously stop stealing mugs from the break room, but also this is a minor issue that will ease some tension in the room. But really, knock it off. Har har. Seriously, tho.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
When Tesla plant manager Andre Thierig took the podium toward the end of a rowdy staff meeting, Germany’s Handelsblatt newspaper reported, he did not mention the bitter conflict between the workers’ council and the IG Metall union that had dominated discussion until then.
Even before the tens of thousands of purloined cups, and the most recent workers’ council elections, Tesla’s Gigafactory in the Grünheide, in the state of Brandenburg, has been a center of controversy.
Soon after the beginning of production in 2022, German magazine Stern published an expose alleging serious violations of worker safety and health regulations as well as environmental laws.
Although the Grünheide plant only reduced staff by about 2%, Works’ Council member Uwe Fischer told Handelsblatt that there was “obvious pressure” on employees to take what was billed as an “attractive” voluntary redundancy offer.
According to IG Metall union secretary Jannes Bojert, Tesla workers are facing extreme pressure, bullying and frustration over the number of safety accidents at the plant.
This was countered at the staff meeting by Michaela Schmitz, the recently reelected leader of the Worker’s Council, who believes the union is exerting undue influence on its members to agitate within the workforce.
