Woman Fired for Complaining About the Lack of Coronavirus Precautions

LOS ANGELES (CNS) – A former employee of a cheese-making factory is suing the company and a staffing agency, alleging she was wrongfully fired for complaining about the lack of social distancing in the workplace given the outbreak of the coronavirus.
Sandra J. Larios de Bravo’s Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit against Personnel Staffing Group LLC and Saputo Cheese USA Inc. alleges wrongful termination, retaliation, and discrimination. She seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages in the suit filed Friday.
In 2017, Personnel Staffing placed Larios de Bravo at her packaging job at Saputo Cheese, where she was primarily responsible for packing and organizing cheese as well as doing quality control work, according to her complaint.
