More allegations about Tesla's on-site industrial medicine program:
Inside Tesla’s factory, a medical clinic designed to ignore injured workers
The lead-off:
"When a worker gets smashed by a car part on Tesla’s factory floor, medical staff are forbidden from calling 911 without permission. The electric carmaker’s contract doctors rarely grant it, instead often insisting that seriously injured workers – including one who severed the top a finger – be sent to the emergency room in a Lyft."
Argues that the clinic is being unusually aggressive in not treating things and/or trying to classify them as not work related.
