A former Tesla construction manager has filed a lawsuit against the electric car company, alleging he was fired in retaliation for reporting a multitude of safety violations, shoddy oversight, and racial discrimination at Tesla’s factories.
In his lawsuit, Cage, who is African American, alleges that he “witnessed and reported countless violations to dozens of Tesla personnel in various departments, including to the highest levels of the company” during his roughly two years working for Tesla, according to a statement from his attorneys issued Tuesday.
Cage “was trained to uphold the highest level of construction compliance,” but “Tesla ignored his reports, then fired him” in retaliation, Cage’s attorney, Tamarah Prevost said in a statement. “Mr. Cage also experienced what no employee should ever have to endure: a blatantly racist workplace,” Prevost said.
