As Elon Mask attacks Dei, Tesla quietly addresses complaints of racism

In Washington, the Trump has been at the forefront of the efforts of the Trump administration for the programs designed to promote the musk variety.

At the same time, Mr. Car Company, Tesla, who leads Mr. Musk, in recent times, with very little notice, tried to please critics who have accused the company of racial discrimination.

In a small section of the company’s annual report published on 29 January, its board promised to “recruit Tesla, develop and maintain excellent talent”.

For shareholders, who have long been pushed Tesla to address the complaints of racism in Frament, California in their factory, generic wording to represent a rare case of changing the company’s own behavior in front of criticism seemed to.

For the first time, the board was taking responsibility for how the company treats employees, some investors said. This is alleged in the trial of being very passive in his inspection of Mr. Musk, which runs many other companies and deputed by President Trump to cut government spending.

“This is something we want for a long time,” said Christin Hull, founder of NIA Impact Capital, located in Oklaland, California.

Tesla admitted in a separate letter to the stock market regulators that it was Dr. Was responding to the criticism of plow and other shareholders. The company, which was responsible for almost half of electric cars sold in the United States last year, has been sued by the California’s Civil Rights Department that the agency called the agency “comprehensive racial discrimination and harassment”. Tesla’s black staff has also filed trial.

Tesla has denied that it is engaged in discrimination and is fighting cases, however, in March, it resolved a case brought by a black worker, who won the jury award against Tesla.

Frament factory workers have complained that they were subject to racial slarses and racist images. A state agency also said that workers gave more physically difficult tasks and refused to transfer and promote more often than other workers.

The company did not respond to the remarks request.

Dr. Hul said it was “irony” that Tesla appeared to carry forward his efforts to promote workplace equality, even Shri Musk attacks diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, programs. He often attacks the variety of efforts on X, causing wrong and misleading claims about them.

There are also indications that Mr. Musk’s political views and his intimate relationship with Mr. Trump and other right -wing political leaders is harming Tesla’s sales. Electric car buyers are more generous than Mr. Musk and his political colleagues. Tesla’s sales in Germany increased by 59 percent in January, compared to the same month last year, Mr. Musk supported a nationalist political party.

Surveys have shown that Mr. Musk’s politics is motivating some American car buyers to choose other brands. In California, former vice -president Kamla Harris won in November, according to the California New Car Dealers Association, New Teslas’ registrations fell 12 percent last year, even the total sales of electric cars and trucks increased slightly. California is about one-third of all electric vehicles sold in the United States.

Dr. Hul said that when the Tesla Board was unclear about how the director would monitor the working position, it established a legal obligation for the shareholders.

“Is it enough solid or is enough wide? No, “he said. “But this is more than expected than Tesla.”

Dr. Hul said that NIA Impact has planned to present the board at Tesla’s next annual meeting, which “reports to investors how and how many times the compensation committee reviews the company’s human capital management practices. ,” Dr. Hul said.

Two other investors, respective banks and proxy impact, caressed the proposal. Both firms push companies to be more inclusive in their work.

Michael Pasoff, Chief Executive Officer of Proxy Impact, said in an email, “Accepting the need for more disclosure from the compensation committee about human capital management is a good first step, and we are ready for more clear information.”

Tesla’s board was a direct response to the resolution of NIA Impact to NIA Impact, according to a letter that Tesla’s Associate General Council, Zehui Kaisi Jhang, who was sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission last month.

After obtaining the proposed resolution, the letter said, the management and board members decided to include “Additional revelations on the inspection of the company’s compensation committee of the company’s compensation”. The letter asked the regulators to allow the shareholder meeting to exclude the resolution, arguing that “the company has already implemented the proposal to a large extent.”

Tesla opposed similar proposals in the previous years.

Ms. Zhang did not respond to the remarks request.

His letter states that the charter of the compensation committee already “asked the company’s recruitment, development and maintained to maintain and maintain it.”

However, the annual report did not mention the diversity, only referred to the target of recruitment of “excellent” talent.

Dr. Hul said that he equaled excellence with diversity, but said, “I see Tesla as ‘excellent’.”
