The Trump administration's regulatory crackdown has resulted in Tesla (TSLA.US) being accused of violating workplace safety regulations.

U.S. federal regulators have accused Tesla (TSLA.US) of violating workplace safety regulations at its Austin, Texas, Super Factory, according to a Labor Department statement provided to Reuters that confirmed the investigation. The department did not specify what workplace safety violations Tesla was accused of or whether it was fined.

The investigation was conducted by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) after the death of Victor Gomez Sr., an electrician working at the Texas factory on August 1. OSHA immediately launched an investigation after the accident, which was reported to have occurred when Gomez was inspecting a power panel that was supposed to be de-energized, according to a lawsuit filed against Tesla that alleged the company was negligent for failing to properly de-energize the panel.

The agency that oversees OSHA said in a statement: "The investigation is complete and the citations have been issued."

The case against Tesla is one of the first to be handled by the Trump administration, which is currently under scrutiny for its investigation and regulation of the company's self-driving technology.

Victor Dergunov, head of investment group, remains bullish on Tesla but believes the company may face headwinds as its car and other product sales fall short of expectations, especially during this "uncertain phase."

Tesla's stock rose 0.5% in premarket trading on Thursday to $362.45, within a 52-week range of $138.80 to $488.54.
