Hey, he’s Elon Musk. Elon don’t need no stinkin’ American laws to interfere with the way he does business in the USA. It ain’t easy being John Galt sleazy.
Reuters headline: Tesla sued by former employees over ‘mass layoff’
By Akriti Sharma and Hyunjoo Jin
June 20 (Reuters) - Former Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) employees have filed a lawsuit against the U.S. electric car company alleging its decision to carry out a “mass layoff” violated federal law as the company did not provide advance notice of the job cuts.
The lawsuit was filed late Sunday in Texas by two workers who said they were terminated from Tesla’s gigafactory plant in Sparks, Nevada in June. According to the suit, more than 500 employees were terminated at the Nevada factory.
The workers allege the company failed to adhere to federal laws on mass layoffs that require a 60-day notification period under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, according to the lawsuit.
