Organogenesis Must Face Trial On Workers’ Sex Bias Claims
Three women who work at Organogenesis claim that management fired them on the basis of sex discrimination. Their supervisor, Oscar Ferrer, has repeatedly inquired about their plans for having children and told one of the women that he planned on firing a saleswoman before she got pregnant. Around the same time the comment was made, Ferrer placed the three women on performance improvement and objective setting plans. Acknowledging that the company was going through a workforce reduction, the women believed they were preselected for the pool of employees to be let go from the company based on these biases.
