Tesla, one of the most talked-about companies in recent days, was shaken this time by allegations of racism.

Tesla Faces Accusations of Racism!
Racist incidents came to light when an employee named Marcus Vaughn sued the company for racism incidents he experienced in the production department. According to Vaughn’s allegations, employees frequently used racist words, and the human resources department turned a blind eye to this situation.
Tesla executives continue to vehemently deny these allegations. Claiming that the allegations are unfounded, the executives stated that they will vigorously defend themselves to clear their name. CEO Elon Musk’s statement on the matter is eagerly awaited.
In the ongoing lawsuit where no definite conclusion has been reached yet, if Tesla is found guilty, it is speculated that approximately 6,000 black employees working at the California Fremont factory could file a massive compensation claim. It remains to be seen whether the company will take any official measures against these incidents in the coming days, as the company has been frequently in the spotlight with similar cases recently.
