15 former or current Black Tesla employees are suing the company<\/a> for allegedly failing to prevent racial discrimination at its Fremont, California factory (via Bloomberg<\/em><\/a>). The lawsuit, which was filed in a California court last week, details workers\u2019 claims that they were subject to racial slurs, derogatory comments, and racially-motivated harassment in the workplace.<\/p>\n

As outlined in the filing, workers allege that their colleagues frequently used the N-word and other racist or discriminatory terms like \u201cslavery\u201d or \u201cplantation\u201d to describe the factory\u2019s work culture. In addition, Tesla allegedly left racist graffiti on bathroom walls, benches, lockers, and workstations that contained \u201cKKK,\u201d the N-word, and drawings of swastikas.<\/p>\n

The lawsuit claims management also took part in the harassment, \u201cignored repeated complaints and reports\u201d regarding the issue, and retaliated against workers \u201cfor reporting and complaining about the discrimination.\u201d One former worker, Jasmin Wilson, claims she was sexually and racially harassed by her coworkers and managers. Her managers allegedly did nothing to report the discrimination and instead established policies targeting Wilson in retaliation for her complaints.<\/p>\n

Another worker, Nathaniel Aziel Gonsalves, claims he was suddenly fired after nine years at Tesla in retaliation for continually reporting racial discrimination at the company. Several other workers claim they were denied promotions on the basis of race, as well as given the \u201cmost physically demanding\u201d jobs at Tesla.<\/p>\n

This most recent lawsuit is just one of many targeting Tesla for alleged racial discrimination and other forms of workplace harassment<\/a>. Last year, a Black former elevator operator won his case<\/a> that accused Tesla of not doing enough to prevent racial discrimination \u2014 he was awarded a reduced payout of $15 million<\/a>. The company also reportedly paid $1 million to an employee<\/a> who claimed the company did nothing after he was called a racial slur by his supervisor.<\/p>\n

In February, California\u2019s Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) filed a lawsuit against Tesla<\/a> that claims the company\u2019s Fremont factory is a \u201cracially segregated environment where Black workers are subjected to racial slurs and discriminated against.\u201d The automaker\u2019s also under investigation by the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission<\/a> (EEOC).<\/p>\n

Tesla has denied claims of discrimination in a post on its blog<\/a>, stating the company \u201cstrongly opposes all forms of discrimination and harassment.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
