“Tesla Engineer Attacked by Robot at Giga Texas Factory Raises Concerns Over Workplace Safety.
In a surprising and concerning turn of events at the Giga Texas factory near Austin, a Tesla engineer found themselves in a precarious situation when a robot malfunctioned and attacked them. Two fellow employees reportedly witnessed the incident, where the machine, designed for handling freshly cast aluminum car parts, unexpectedly pinned the engineer. The robot’s metal claws inflicted injuries to the engineer’s back and arm, leaving behind a disturbing ‘trail of blood’ across the factory floor.
Details of this incident surfaced through a 2021 injury report filed by Tesla to both Travis County and federal regulators. The report, reviewed by DailyMail, revealed that the engineer, who was simultaneously programming software for disabled Tesla robots nearby, sustained an ‘open wound’ on their left hand as a result of the robot’s attack.
This incident adds another layer to the ongoing debate and concerns surrounding the use of automated robots in the workplace. The potential risks associated with these machines have been highlighted in various sectors, from reports of increased injuries at Amazon shipment centers due to robotic coworkers to instances of mishaps with self-driving cars and even unusual violence from robotic chess instructors.
The injury report, a legal requirement for Tesla to maintain its tax breaks in Texas, claimed that the engineer did not require time off work. However, an attorney representing Tesla’s Giga Texas contract workers raised doubts about the accuracy of such reports. The attorney, Hannah Alexander of the nonprofit Workers Defense Project, indicated that, based on conversations with workers, there is a possibility of underreported injuries at the factory.
Furthermore, the attorney drew attention to a tragic incident that occurred on September 28, 2021, involving the death of a construction worker named Antelmo Ramírez. According to the Travis County medical examiner’s report, Ramírez died of heat stroke while contributing to the construction of Tesla’s expansive Giga Texas factory. This incident, along with other injuries and fatalities, raises concerns about the completeness and accuracy of Tesla’s injury reports.
In response to potential discrepancies, the Workers Defense Project had previously filed a complaint with the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) on behalf of Giga Texas workers. The complaint alleged that Tesla’s contractors and subcontractors provided false safety certificates and inadequate training, suggesting that workers were receiving certifications without proper training.
The attorney advised caution in interpreting Tesla’s injury reports, emphasizing the need to scrutinize the accuracy of submissions against the actual experiences of workers. This situation underscores the importance of robust workplace safety practices, transparency in reporting, and ongoing scrutiny of emerging technologies’ integration into industrial environments.
