Hello folks. Space is one of my favorite subjects, and I hope that in the future, humans can return to the Moon or eventually take a round-trip to Mars, after solving societal issues on Earth first. One such societal issue has not been solved: Corporate negligence. There has been recent news about SpaceX, the company run by CEO Elon Musk which state that workers at the space launch corporation have been injured, and mistreated. Safety at SpaceX is treated as a second or third priority, while profits and speed are emphasized. There have been 600 reported injuries at SpaceX since 2014, and one employee death due to a gust of wind, which blew a worker off a crane. CEO Elon Musk has even disregarded safety protocols, disliking bright colors such as yellow safety clothing from being worn by workers. When money is placed above people, employees or customers get treated like trash.
SpaceX injuries abound: At SpaceX, worker injuries soar in Elon Musk’s rush to Mars
EDIT (11/24/2023): This thread is not a place to be victim-blaming the SpaceX workers who got injured as described in the news article. It is not very Christian to victim-blame, when we should really focus on the epidemic problems of negligence by upper management at major corporations.
