Because of racism towards an employee, Tesla was fined $137 million

 

TESLA

A California judge has ordered the electric car company Tesla to pay a former employee $137 million in compensation for condoning racist practices in one of its factories, in a ruling that would shake American companies, according to a lawyer.


"They have decided to pay a sum that could be a warning sign for American companies" to get them "not to engage in racist behavior and not to allow racism to continue," civil rights attorney Larry Organ told AFP.

Hiring his services through an employment agency, Owen Diaz worked as a freight elevator operator between June 2015 and July 2016 at the Tesla plant in Fremont, California, where he was subjected to racist abuse in a hostile work environment, according to court documents.

During the trial, Diaz explained that black workers in the factory, where his son also works, were constantly subjected to racial abuse.


"The progressive image of Tesla is a facade that conceals backward and degrading treatment of black American employees," the complaint said.

Elon Musk is the richest person in the world thanks to the rise of #Tesla shares

  Tesla stock After Elon Musk became the richest person in the world thanks to the recent rise of Tesla shares, Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas said that SpaceX will push Musk to become a "trillionaire." The space exploration company is challenging any preconceived notion of what was feasible and the possible timeframe, in terms of rockets, launch vehicles and supporting infrastructure who can catch up, Jonas added in a note entitled SpaceX Jump Fast forward. SpaceX now makes up less than 17% of Musk's net worth of $241.4 billion, according to the Bloomberg Rich List, after the company was valued at $100 billion in a secondary stock sale earlier in October. Jonas, who currently values SpaceX for $200 billion, added that he views it as a multi-company, encompassing space infrastructure, Earth observation, deep space exploration and other industries. Tesla’s valuation tops $1 trillion after Hertz’s plan to buy 100,000 Tesla EVs

Walmart warns its customers of potentially fatal products and calls on them to return them immediately

  Walmart stores have called on all of their customers not to use an aromatherapy spray product after finding a "rare and dangerous bacteria" that can cause a fatal condition, as investigators are looking into two deaths so far. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tested Walmart's essential oil-infused aromatherapy spray with gemstones and found Burkholderia pseudomallei bacteria, which can cause a potentially fatal condition called melasma. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the CDC is investigating four confirmed cases in Kansas, Minnesota, Texas and Georgia, along with two deaths, including the death of one child. The CDC did not confirm the source of the four infections, but indicated that there was a bottle of the same type of bacteria in the home of one of the deceased from melasma. The CDC advises consumers who use the aromatherapy spray to immediately stop using the product, place the bottle in clear reusable bags, place it in a c...
