Reuters documented at least 600 previously unreported workplace injuries at Musk’s rocket company: crushed limbs, amputations, electrocutions, head and eye wounds and one death.

After years of failing to report annual injury-and-illness statistics to regulators, some SpaceX sites started filing the data in 2021 or 2022. The data for 2022, which are more complete, reveal injury rates at three major SpaceX industrial facilities that far exceeded the space-industry average.

We firmly believe that the pursuit of space exploration should not compromise the safety and well-being of those who work tirelessly to make it a reality.

We chose to share this to highlight the importance of worker safety and the need for accountability. SpaceX, a leader in this frontier, should set the highest standards in safeguarding its team.
