IG Metall claimed that management at Tesla's Grünheide Gigafactory fired a works council member affiliated with the union without notice, which was characterized as an "attempt to intimidate" workers.
The union stated that Tesla has been using "aggressive tactics" against employees supporting humane working conditions, indicating a hostile environment for unionization efforts.
Plant Manager André Thierig asserted that a recent election showed 80% of workers opposed unionization, suggesting a lack of support for IG Metall's initiatives.
Works Council Head Michaela Schmitz accused IG Metall of exploiting works council members, asserting that their actions hinder Tesla's operational goals and product delivery.
