An aerial view shows the Tesla Fremont Factory in Fremont, California on February 10, 2022. Almost 6,000 Black workers from Tesla Inc.’s East Bay factory can sue the car maker collectively over claims that it failed to protect them from racism under a tentative ruling by a California judge.
Alameda County Superior Court Judge Noël Wise said Wednesday the workers should be allowed to proceed with class-action status because Tesla’s alleged “pattern or practice” of failing to take reasonable steps to prevent discrimination was a common issue for all the Black workers at the Fremont plant.
The judge gave Tesla until Thursday to contest her ruling and scheduled a hearing for Friday for the parties to argue their positions., who claimed that the factory production floor was a “hotbed of racist behavior.” According to the complaint, co-workers and supervisors routinely used racial slurs, and employee complaints to human resources went largely unanswered.
Tesla initially responded to Vaughn’s suit with a blog post titled “Hotbed of Misinformation,” denying wrongdoing and saying the company had fired three people after probing alleged incidents.The case is Vaughn v. Tesla, Inc., RG17882082, California Superior Court, Alameda County.
