Documents from regulator Cal/OSHA undermine Tesla executives' statements about worker safety at the company's Fremont, Calif., factory.
Workplace safety at Tesla faded from the headlines as the company emerged from “production hell,” Musk parlance for the period when he struggled to ramp up manufacturing of the Model 3 sedan.
In its December memorandum, Cal/OSHA said the 2018 summary data Tesla provided to the government was missing roughly three dozen incidents that were listed in its logs, or 4% of the total. For 2016, 44% of the incidents weren’t included. Cal/OSHA said in its December memorandum that disparities sometimes arise when companies learn about incidents and add them to their injury logs after they’ve sent their summary to the government. But the agency said that when there are “significant numerical disparities,” a company should consider whether its processes are “adequate to verify accuracy.”
