The two ex-employees say they were fired from the company because of their involvement in the public criticism of Musk.
Two employees from California have filed a complaint with the National Labor Relations Board. Federal law protects employee speech related to working conditions.
The employees say they were involved in drafting two letters, one of which askedTesla to reconsider its return-to-the-office policies and the other highlighting a tweet by Musk that they claim violates the company's anti-harassment policies. The letters never made it to the executives of the company.
The failure to enforce its non-harassment policy and the implementation of its post-covid return to office policy is attributed toTesla.
According to the complaint, the employees were fired for discussingTesla's failure to enforce its non-harassment policy and its implementation of its post- Covid return to office policy The documents involved in the case are the subject of a Freedom of Information request.
The case is similar to one involving a group of former employees who claim they were illegally fired after writing a letter to the company urging them to strengthen their anti-harassment policy. Eight employees filed charges with federal regulators after they were fired after the letter came out.
The former employees filed a complaint with the National Labor Relations Board. The firm the former employees retained was the same one they used to work for. A person for the firm did not respond to the request. Since the dissolution of its press relations division, the company has not responded to any questions.
Over the years, there have been a number of employee allegations and lawsuits against the company. A group of employees from the company have signed a letter condemning Musk.
US law does not allow employers to take action against workers who are unionized and non-unionized.
