(Bloomberg) -- New York state’s retirement plan is ratcheting up pressure on Tesla Inc., calling on the electric-car maker to disclose how much it spends on settling sexual harassment and racial discrimination complaints.

(彭博社)——纽约州的退休计划加大了特斯拉公司的压力，要求这家电动汽车制造商披露其在解决性骚扰和种族歧视投诉方面的支出。

The New York State Common Retirement Fund, one of the country’s biggest public pension plans, filed its shareholder proposal last week following a high-profile racial discrimination case that resulted in a $137 million jury award and days before California took the extraordinary step of suing Tesla. The resolution asks the automaker to publish how effective its measures are in ending bad conduct in the workplace.

上周，美国最大的公共养老金计划之一纽约州共同退休基金(New York State Common Retirement Fund)提交了股东提案。此前，一起备受瞩目的种族歧视案件导致陪审团裁定1.37亿美元的赔偿金。几天后，加州采取了非同寻常的措施，起诉特斯拉(Tesla)。该决议要求该汽车制造商公布其措施在终止工作场所不良行为方面的有效性。

“Recent developments further highlight the need for Tesla to address how the company is preventing harassment and discrimination against employees,” New York State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli said in an emailed statement Monday. “This kind of alleged behavior should never be tolerated.”

纽约州审计长托马斯•迪纳波利(Thomas DiNapoli)周一在一份电子邮件声明中表示:“最近的事态发展进一步凸显了特斯拉需要解决公司如何防止对员工的骚扰和歧视的问题。”“这种所谓的行为绝不应该被容忍。”

California’s civil rights regulator sued Tesla last week for racial discrimination and harassment after finding widespread mistreatment of Black workers at its factory near San Francisco. The lawsuit adds to a number of complaints the company has faced in recent years from former workers about racism and sexual harassment.

上周，加州民权监管机构以种族歧视和骚扰为由起诉特斯拉(Tesla)，原因是该公司旧金山附近的工厂普遍存在对黑人工人的虐待。最近几年，前员工对该公司提出了种族主义和性骚扰的诸多投诉，而这次的诉讼更是雪上加霜。

The New York fund, which manages about $280 billion, stands out for publicly putting pressure on Tesla to change its ways. By contrast, the electric-vehicle company’s biggest shareholders -- Vanguard Group Inc., BlackRock Inc. and State Street Corp.’s investing unit -- declined to comment on alleged discrimination at Tesla, citing their long-standing policies of not discussing individual companies.

这家管理着约2800亿美元资产的纽约基金，因公开向特斯拉施压，要求其改变行事方式而引人注目。相比之下，特斯拉的最大股东先锋集团(Vanguard Group Inc.)、贝莱德(BlackRock Inc.)和道富银行(State Street Corp.)的投资部门拒绝就特斯拉被指存在歧视一事置评，理由是他们长期以来不讨论单个公司的政策。

Officials at Austin, Texas-based Tesla haven’t responded to a request for comment.

总部位于得克萨斯州奥斯汀的特斯拉的管理人员尚未回应置评请求。

While Tesla’s electric vehicles have played a pivotal role in the shift to cleaner fuels, most ESG investors have long avoided the stock because of the automaker’s shortcomings in corporate governance. Other socially minded investors such as Calvert Research & Management and Trillium Asset Management own a nominal amount of shares so they can press the company to change its behavior. Officials at Calvert, which filed a diversity shareholder proposal with Tesla last year, and Trillium declined to comment.

尽管特斯拉的电动汽车在向更清洁燃料的转变中发挥了关键作用，但由于这家汽车制造商在公司治理方面存在缺陷，大多数ESG投资者长期以来一直回避该公司股票。卡尔弗特研究管理公司(Calvert Research & Management)和Trillium资产管理公司(Trillium Asset Management)等其他具有社会意识的投资者持有该公司名义数量的股份，以便施压该公司改变其行为。Calvert和Trillium的高管均拒绝置评。Calvert去年向特斯拉提交了多元化股东提案。

More than a dozen other large Tesla shareholders, including Capital Group, Fidelity Investments, Baron Capital and the California Public Employees’ Retirement System, also declined to comment.

包括资本集团(Capital Group)、富达投资(Fidelity Investments)、巴伦资本(Baron Capital)和加州公共雇员退休系统(California Public Employees ' Retirement System)在内的十多家特斯拉大股东也拒绝置评。

For real change to happen at Tesla, the company’s largest investors need to take action, said Dieter Waizenegger, executive director of SOC Investment Group, which filed resolutions during the last proxy-voting season asking Wall Street firms to perform racial equity audits. Big shareholders should be insisting that the issues of discrimination and harassment are put on the agenda for meetings with Tesla in the next six months, Waizenegger said.

SOC投资集团(SOC Investment Group)执行董事迪特尔•威辛格(Dieter Waizenegger)表示，要想让特斯拉发生真正的变化，该公司最大的投资者需要采取行动。该集团在上一个代理投票季节提交了决议，要求华尔街公司进行种族平等审计。威辛格表示，大股东应该坚持将歧视和骚扰问题列入未来6个月与特斯拉的会议议程。

Edgar Hernandez, an assistant director at Service Employees International Union, which has successfully pressed companies to conduct independent civil rights audits, agreed. The more outspoken the largest investors are “the more there is an opportunity for change at the company such as updating and enforcing policies,” he said.

美国服务业雇员国际工会(Service Employees International Union)助理主任埃德加•赫尔南德斯(Edgar Hernandez)同意这一观点。该组织成功地迫使企业进行独立的民权审计。他表示，最大的投资者越是直言不讳，“公司就越有机会进行变革，比如更新和执行政策。”

In the wake of protests against racial injustice that swept the U.S. in 2020, BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street Global Advisors have vowed to vote off board directors of companies that fail to address the lack of diversity in their ranks. The three firms backed a shareholder proposal last year that asked Tesla to publish a report on the racial and gender breakdown of its workforce.

在2020年席卷美国的反对种族不平等的抗议活动之后，贝莱德(BlackRock)、先锋集团(Vanguard)和道富环球顾问(State Street Global Advisors)誓言要投票罢免那些未能解决员工队伍缺乏多样性问题的公司的董事。这三家公司去年支持了一项股东提案，要求特斯拉发布一份关于员工种族和性别划分的报告。

Vanguard, Tesla’s biggest shareholder after Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk, said in an October report that it has interacted with Tesla at least annually over the past five years. The money manager said it discussed the automaker’s efforts to address diversity, equity and inclusion in its workforce during a meeting with the board chair last year. Vanguard described Tesla’s inaugural diversity report in 2020 as a “promising start” and added that it wants the company to continue prioritizing “qualitative and quantitative disclosures on workforce diversity.”

先锋集团是特斯拉仅次于首席执行官埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)的最大股东，该公司在10月份的一份报告中表示，过去五年里，先锋集团至少每年都与特斯拉进行互动。这家基金管理公司表示，在去年与董事会主席的一次会议上，该公司讨论了通用汽车在员工多元化、公平和包容方面所做的努力。先锋集团(Vanguard)将特斯拉2020年的首份多元化报告描述为一个“有希望的开始”，并补充称，希望该公司继续优先披露“员工多元化的定性和定量信息”。

In its Feb. 7 shareholder proposal, the New York pension asked Tesla to every year publish details such as how much it has paid in settlements related to harassment and discrimination, as well as specifics on the progress it’s made in reducing the time taken to settle complaints. It also requested the company disclose how many pending cases it’s seeking to resolve either internally or through litigation. The state said civil rights violations can result in substantial costs.

在2月7日的股东提案中，纽约养老金委员会要求特斯拉每年公布细节，比如它为与骚扰和歧视有关的和解支付了多少钱，以及它在减少解决投诉所需时间方面取得的具体进展。它还要求该公司披露有多少悬而未决的案件正在寻求内部或通过诉讼解决。该州表示，侵犯公民权利可能会导致巨大的成本。

The retirement plan has succeeded in the past in pressing Tesla for change. Four years ago, it filed a resolution asking the company to disclose its process for identifying and analyzing human-rights risks in its operations. Tesla agreed to produce a report.

退休计划过去曾成功地迫使特斯拉做出改变。四年前，该公司提交了一份决议，要求该公司披露其识别和分析运营中人权风险的过程。特斯拉同意提交一份报告。

Separately, the New York fund filed resolutions last month asking companies, including Amazon.com Inc. and Match Group Inc., to conduct independent racial audits of their businesses.

另外，这家位于纽约的基金上个月提交了决议，要求包括亚马逊(Amazon.com Inc.)和Match Group Inc.在内的公司对其业务进行独立的种族审计。
