DOJ sues SpaceX for not hiring asylum seekers and refugees
The Justice Department alleges that SpaceX discouraged asylum seekers and refugees from applying for jobs or refused employment to them.
If you have government contracts, which is the way SpaceX survives, the rule is you have to consider everyone for employment that can be employed. That means you have to consider refugees as long as they can be legally employed. You don't have to employ them but you can't exclude them due to their status.
56Yeah, cos it would make sense to hire newly arrived individuals from potentially non-friendly countries.
2Individuals from foreign nations would have their origin considered when they are processed for whatever level of secret clearance they needed to work on the government contact.
