Remember Tesla’s production tent, the one it erected to help crank out Model 3s last year? Apparently, it didn’t sit well with California’s Division of Occupational Safety and Health, and the company now faces fines totaling nearly $30,000 over violations of labor laws.

Business Insider reported Friday that Cal/OSHA inspected the assembly line known as GA4 between June and December last year and dinged Tesla for a number of regulations violations. Cal/OSHA issued the company six citations for allegedly failing to secure a permit for the structure, neglecting to effectively train workers on evacuation procedures, and failing properly inspect the production area for potential workplace dangers. In total, the fines amount to $29,365, which it’s worth noting is less than the cost of a Model 3.
