management systems – Requirements with guidance for use (Tesla, n.d.). Tesla’s sub-contractors are also covered in this policy. Under the policy, sub-contractors used by the company must undertake a health and safety prequalification, present a health and safety plan, participate in a start-up meeting, identify hazards and controls, complete induction, and submit regular health and safety reports (Tesla, n.d.). The policy also outlines the process the company uses to manage employees’ work-related injuries. Before adopting this policy, the company assigned injured employees to less demanding tasks and adjusted their compensation to reflect the new task (EHS Insight, 2018). After extensive backlash from employees, the company changed this approach and stopped changing the pay rate for injured employees (EHS Insight, 2018). Since more physically demanding tasks in automobile factories pay more than less demanding ones, Tesla’s policy protects employees from financial instability when injured (EHS Insight, 2018). Specifically, even though an injured employee might be assigned physically less demanding tasks, this reassignment will not trigger a change in their pay rate.
