    California Sues Tesla for Racial Discrimination

    • California’s Department of Fair Employment and Housing says it conducted a three-year-long investigation and received hundreds of complaints from Tesla workers.
    • The agency says it found evidence that Tesla routinely kept Black workers in lower-level roles at the company, assigned them more physically demanding work, and retaliated against them when they complained about racist slurs on the assembly line.
    • The agency is seeking unspecified damages and for the company to reinstate workers who were unfairly terminated.

    I'm not sure how much of this is preening and retribution and how much of this is valid, but this strikes me as bureaucracy run amok:

    “Tesla had no written procedures for coordinating investigations into racial harassment involving workers from staffing agencies and did not provide standardized training to supervisors on how to conduct investigations into racial harassment,” the DFEH wrote.
    Seems a little nit-picky if they have substantial grounds to sue.

      Tesla is moving to Texas or somewhere, right? This might just be a parting grab at the honey pot.
