Comment on Swedish dockworkers are refusing to unload Teslas at ports in broad boycott move
profdc9@lemmy.world 1 year agoAren’t cross-trade strikes a consequence of union solidarity? I think large federated unions in other countries engage is similar protests.

I’m not sure about other countries but in germany I’ve never heard of such a thing. Although I’m not even really sure how big unions are here. I know there is the IG Metall, which apparently has pretty good coverage of a lot of industrial trades. Then there is ver.di that covers a lot of more office-type jobs, and I think there is another one for train drivers and workers. However I have never heard of the unions cooperating to target a specific company.
