I'm a foreigner so I don't fully understand this, but here's my take:
1) Tesla is restarting the factory against local rules saying they can't, because their competition is in different localities with their local rules saying they can, and Tesla is at a disadvantage.
2) It's basically illegal for the workers to go to work, but Tesla is still insisting they do this?
3) the local council has said they won't do enforcement.
4) If the staff refuse (a potentially unsafe) order from Tesla to return to their jobs (to break the law) the govt will stop paying unemployment?
So, my understanding, the workers have to potentially risk their health and break the law or the govt won't pay them unemployment?
Have I made a mistake?
That's a messed up situation for those workers. Does Cali do anything like suspended sentences(you get sentenced to prison, but you don't have to go, but if you do another crime you have to go for both durations)? Would this impact workers in that situation?
