XPO Logistics, one of the world’s largest transportation and logistics services, has made the decision to close a warehouse in Memphis where workplace discrimination and a number of miscarriages took place. Closing the warehouse will result in 400 employees losing their jobs. The union that has been trying to organize warehouse employees has claimed that the warehouse closure is retaliation against workers who brought cases of harassment and miscarriage to light. The miscarriages were a result of pregnant employees engaging in physically strenuous work, without being allowed to take breaks.
