特斯拉汽车公司近期宣布，旗下所有美国工厂生产线员工、物料搬运人员和质量检查员将获得新年开工的“市场调整薪酬增长”。据彭博社报道，特斯拉公司已通知其加州汽车工厂工人，全美工厂工人将进行加薪。然而，具体加薪幅度并未公布。
特斯拉的此举与丰田、大众和现代等车企的涨薪步伐一致。这些车企在 UAW 去年与福特、通用和 Stellantis 达成历史性劳工协议后，纷纷提高了美国工厂的员工薪酬。UAW 目前正在将其谈判桌上的成功转化为针对特斯拉等制造商的组织攻势。
特斯拉首席执行官埃隆·马斯克长期以来一直批评 UAW 和工会。他最近强调了降低成本的重要性，称许多消费者由于利率上升抵消了多次降价，仍然买不起特斯拉的电动汽车。提高生产工人薪酬将让马斯克在特斯拉最近财报电话会议上提到的“一分钱的游戏”变得更加困难。
特斯拉全球拥有约 14 万名员工，其中约一半在美国。仅特斯拉弗里蒙特工厂就雇佣了超过 2 万名工人。据报道，该工厂的员工已经成立了 UAW 组织委员会，UAW 也承诺将提供一切必要的资源支持当地组织活动。
2021 年，美国国家劳工关系委员会裁定，特斯拉在 UAW 之前的组织工作中多次违反劳动法。特斯拉否认存在不当行为，目前正在联邦法院对该裁决提出上诉。
Title: Tesla raises wages for workers at all US factories
Keywords: Tesla, wage increase, US factories
News content: Tesla recently announced that all production line workers, material handlers, and quality inspectors at its US factories will receive “market-adjusted wage increases” as a New Year’s gift. According to Bloomberg, Tesla has notified its California car factory workers that wages will be raised for workers across the company’s US factories. However, the specific increase in wages has not been disclosed.
Tesla’s move is in line with the wage increases announced by automakers such as Toyota, Volkswagen, and Hyundai. These companies have increased wages for their US factory workers after reaching historic labor agreements with UAW, Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis last year. UAW is now turning its negotiating successes into an organizational offensive against manufacturers like Tesla.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has long criticized UAW and unions. He recently emphasized the importance of reducing costs, saying that many consumers can still not afford Tesla’s electric vehicles due to rising interest rates that offset multiple price reductions. Increasing wages for production workers will make Musk’s “penny game” mentioned in Tesla’s recent earnings call even more challenging.
Tesla employs approximately 140,000 workers worldwide, with about half of them based in the US. The company’s Fremont factory alone employs over 20,000 workers. Reportedly, the factory’s employees have formed a UAW organizing committee, and UAW has promised to provide all necessary resources to support local organizing activities.
In 2021, the National Labor Relations Board ruled that Tesla had violated labor laws multiple times in its previous organizing efforts with UAW. Tesla denies any wrongdoing and is currently appealing the ruling in federal court.
