According to The Irish Times' latest report, Musk said that X users who are unfairly treated by their employers will receive financial assistance from the socmed company.
He added that X will pay for legal bills and sue the unfair employers on behalf of the affected users.
"If you were unfairly treated by your employer due to posting or liking something on this platform, we will fund your legal bill," said the billionaire via his official X announcement.
Elon added that the financial assistance that X users will receive has no limitations. All they need to do is inform the company.
Musk's X post generated over 53 million views, 19,800 quotes, 89,000 retweets, and 489,000 likes.

Other users said that the billionaire is doing more for the United States and other countries compared to governments.
Meanwhile, some individuals continued sharing their negative experiences while using the online platform.
One of them shared that she was removed from her work after publicly opposing vaccine mandates.
"After speaking publicly against vaccine mandates, my hospital leadership texted me to 'pipe down on social media,'" she said.
