    I don’t see any comparison to other companys’ automotive plants, so the numbers here are pretty meaningless.

      Tesla’s Fremont factory in California also has a torrid history with worker injuries. Employees there have a higher injury rate than the national average. Tesla has been accused of underreporting injuries and of failing to address hazards in an outdoor tent that was erected for the assembly line, incurring fines.

      Literally in the article. Did you even bother hitting “ctrl-f” before posting?

      Linked article in that paragraph: https://www.theverge.com/2017/5/24/15681472/tesla-model-3-electric-car-factory-injury-rate-worker-safety

      Injury rates were 31 percent higher than the US industry average in 2015, with a total recordable incidence rate of 8.8 per 100 workers compared with 6.7 per 100.

      The Information is there if you’re actually looking for it.

        Yeah, wish in one hand and shit in the other. Industrial manufacturing is a very dangerous job no matter who is running the plant.

          Alright, go work there, then. If you have an incident, I’ll point, laugh, and tell you you knew what you were signing up for.

            I hope you realize that the dangers of industrial manufacturing are a large part of the reason most people don’t want to do it.

            I wasn’t saying that people should get maimed at work, but certain jobs inherently carry more risk than others. It’s disingenuous to provide stats for one company without comparing it to the industry average.

              The poster responded to you yesterday, and literally quoted where the article mentions how Tesla compares to the industry average.

              What is your goal here, if you don’t mind me asking?

                Oddly enough, OPs response didn’t show up in my inbox, and I must have missed the stat when I read the article.

                My goal was to point out what I did in the comment above.
