Tesla files another lawsuit alleging sexual harassment and retaliation by management
Within a month, a second Tesla employee has filed a lawsuit alleging sexual harassment at the workplace, Reuters and Business Insider report. Tesla's assembly line worker Erica Claude filed a lawsuit in California's Alameda County Superior Court, claiming she experienced "frequent and widespread" sexual harassment at the factory she worked at.
As noted by Reuters, Claude's lawsuit alleges that her manager hugged and massaged her, and claims she was also subjected to obscene and sexual comments from her manager. It also accuses Tesla of not doing enough to address potential sexual harassment in the workplace. Cloud's managers are reportedly retaliating against him after he brought the issue to Human Resources.
Tesla's production associate Jessica Barazza sued the company, alleging "massive sexual assault" at its Fremont, CA factory. Baraza's lawsuit claims she was inappropriately touched, catcalled and subjected to sexual comments at the workplace. She also alleged that her managers were aware of the harassment, and participated in similar behavior.
In October, Tesla was ordered to pay $137 million in connection with another incident at its Fremont factory. Owen Diaz, a Black former elevator operator at the company, said he experienced racial harassment and discrimination. Tesla employees later proposed a class-action lawsuit alleging racism at the Fremont factory.
