Crisis-stricken Northvolt has bought itself some breathing room by paying what the company owed to the Tax Agency. However, a long-term solution to the battery manufacturer's financing is still not in place. And at the Enforcement Authority, large Northvolt invoices are piling up.
BusinessCrisis-stricken Northvolt, which is to pay over a quarter of a billion kronor to the Tax Agency on Monday, is in acute need of more money from owners and lenders. A crucial piece of the puzzle to get it in place is the reduction of 1,600 employees, which is expected to be completed this week. It will be a hard blow, especially to foreign recruits.
BusinessOn Monday, Northvolt must pay a tax debt of 287 million kronor. The alternatives are bankruptcy, reconstruction – or personal payment liability for the board. A solution is now said to be on the table – and according to the CEO, they will pay on time.
BusinessThe Trade Union Seko is expanding the postal strike against the electric car giant Tesla. The dispatch of registration plates is to be stopped.
BusinessThe negotiations on layoffs of officials at the crisis-stricken battery giant Northvolt are partially complete. Over 200 are forced to leave in Västerås and Stockholm. It's better than expected, says Teodor Mellström, chairman of the Akademikerföreningen at Northvolt.
BusinessMany who are affected by Northvolt's massive layoffs in Skellefteå may choose to leave the country – and take their expertise with them – when they finish at the factory. I see such a risk, and that's why we're mobilizing now, says Minister for Labour Market and Integration Mats Persson (The Liberals).
