averagejoel 04/17/18 9:01:27 AM #1:	Many have gone to work at Tesla inspired by CEO Elon Musk and his mission. What some found, they said, was a chaotic factory floor where speed trumped safety. Inside Teslas electric car factory, giant red robots some named for X-Men characters heave car parts in the air, while workers wearing black toil on aluminum car bodies. Forklifts and tuggers zip by on gray-painted floors, differentiated from pedestrian walkways by another shade of gray. Theres one color, though, that some of Teslas former safety experts wanted to see more of: yellow the traditional hue of caution used to mark hazards. Concerned about bone-crunching collisions and the lack of clearly marked pedestrian lanes at the Fremont, California, plant, the general assembly lines then-lead safety professional went to her boss, who she said told her, Elon does not like the color yellow. The melding of cutting-edge technology and world-saving vision is Tesla Inc.s big draw. Many, including Justine White, the safety lead, went to work there inspired by Elon Musk, a CEO with star power and now a groundbreaking rocket in space. What she and some of her colleagues found, they said, was a chaotic factory floor where style and speed trumped safety. Musks name often was invoked to justify shortcuts and shoot down concerns, they said. Under fire for mounting injuries, Tesla recently touted a sharp drop in its injury rate for 2017, which it says came down to meet the auto industry average of about 6.2 injuries per 100 workers. But things are not always as they seem at Tesla. An investigation by Reveal from The Center for Investigative Reporting found that Tesla has failed to report some of its serious injuries on legally mandated reports, making the companys injury numbers look better than they actually are. Last April, Tarik Logan suffered debilitating headaches from the fumes of a toxic glue he had to use at the plant. He texted his mom: Im n hella pain foreal something aint right. The searing pain became so unbearable he couldnt work, and it plagued him for weeks. But Logans inhalation injury, as it was diagnosed, never made it onto the official injury logs that state and federal law requires companies to keep. Neither did reports from other factory workers of sprains, strains and repetitive stress injuries from piecing together Teslas sleek cars. Instead, company officials labeled the injuries personal medical issues or minor incidents requiring only first aid, according to internal company records obtained by Reveal. . . . Tesla, worth about $50 billion, employs more than 10,000 workers at its Fremont factory. Alongside the companys remarkable rise, workers have been sliced by machinery, crushed by forklifts, burned in electrical explosions and sprayed with molten metal. Tesla recorded 722 injuries last year, about two a day. The rate of serious injuries, requiring time off or a work restriction, was 30 percent worse than the previous years industry average. Frantic growth, constant changes and lax rules, combined with a CEO whom senior managers were afraid to cross, created an atmosphere in which few dared to stand up for worker safety, the former environment, health and safety team members told Reveal. And in addition to yellow, Musk was said to dislike too many signs in the factory and the warning beeps forklifts make when backing up, former team members said. His preferences, they said, were well known and led to cutting back on those standard safety signals. full article: https://www.revealnews.org/article/tesla-says-its-factory-is-safer-but-it-left-injuries-off-the-books/amp/ late stage capitalism rules, actually --- peanut butter and dick <cite>averagejoel posted [p:899804233] in Tesla's aw...
