A former safety supervisor at Tesla's Gigafactory in Austin, Texas, has filed a lawsuit against the company, alleging severe injuries from unsecured Cybertruck parts that fell on him in February 2024. The plaintiff claims the incident resulted from inadequate safety measures prioritizing production over worker protection. He seeks more than $1 million in damages following his termination a month later.
