Dispute over wages for sick workers

IG Metall accuses the e-car maker Tesla “inadmissible intimidation” and “massive approach of management” against the employees of the work in Grünheide in Brandenburg. “Tesla doubts medical certificates to a large extent, refuses to continue paying in the event of illness and retains remuneration,” said the union in the Berlin-Brandenburg-Sachsen district on Friday. “With this unacceptable approach, the company keeps doing colleagues in financial need,” said IG Metall district manager Dirk Schulze. The “massive approach of management against his own employees” mean that members at Tesla in Grünheide “needed the legal protection of the union as often as on the average of IG Metall”. A large number of similar cases were received, the union said. Tesla initially doubt sick leave of employees and require to disclose diagnoses and to give the doctors from the duty of confidentiality. According to IG Metall, the group then often removes and puts the employees “under pressure”-according to the union with the reference to “debts”, which they would have through a “overpayment”. Employees “to sign this procedure without prior examination”. The “populist scandals of IG Metall”, the company explained. In this case, like the IG Metall, a “massive approach is a conscious distortion of reality,” continued Tesla. In addition, there would be “cases in which the Federal Labor Court assumes that an illness could be advanced”, Tesla continued – for example, “if someone can be taken sick for exactly the time for which a vacation application has been rejected”. In such cases, the employer may request evidence. That is “common practice in Germany”.
