Tesla said the anticipated lawsuit from the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing appears to focus on incidents between 2015 and 2019.
Washington, DC The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing will sue Tesla , alleging systematic racial discrimination and harassment, the automaker said in a blog post Wednesday.
Department spokesperson Fahizah Alim declined to confirm or comment on the expected lawsuit. If filed, the lawsuit would be the latest in a series of allegations of racism in Tesla's workplace. A former Tesla employee, Owen Diaz, was awarded $136.9 million last year when a jury concluded he was subject to a racially hostile workplace. Other lawsuits have alleged a toxic culture.
