Tesla Being Sued For Discrimination, Harassment

A California civil rights agency filed a lawsuit against Tesla earlier this week alleging racism and harassment at the company’s manufacturing plant in Fremont. According to a statement from the company, “Tesla strongly opposes all forms of discrimination and harassment,” … “Tesla continues to seek to provide a workplace that is safe, respectful, fair, and inclusive.” According to Kevin Kish the Director of the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, the agency had received ‘hundreds’ of complaints from workers including some who’ve heard racial slurs throughout the day and saw racist graffiti in restrooms, work stations and lunch tables. The complaints have been filed with the agency over almost a decade according to the lawsuit.
