May 6 (Reuters) - Tesla Inc is covering transportation costs for employees to get out-of-state abortions, the New York Times DealBook newsletter reported on Friday.

Tesla could not be immediately reached for comment.

Several companies, including Levi Strauss & Co and Amazon.com Inc, have pledged to offer similar support to their U.S. employees who need to travel out of states like Texas and Oklahoma that have restricted access to abortion services.
