During the coronavirus pandemic, Tesla CEO Elon Musk told workers to “not feel obligated to come to work.” According to Business Insider, two workers were terminated after they chose to take his advice. The two workers said the human resources department cited their inability to reach them as the reason for their termination. Yet they believe it may be punishment for speaking out about working conditions in May. After Tesla defied state orders and reopened their factory, several employees tested positive for coronavirus.
