Well, well, well, it turns out that Planned Parenthood might not be the immaculate champion of womens rights they insist to be. Well we all knew that, but it sure is nice to see it as an official story written by The New York Times. In a Thursday report, The New York Times exposed the abortion giants discrimination against its own pregnant employees.
The Times cited the firsthand accounts from several Planned Parenthood employees, including assistant TaLisa Hairston, who complained the reproductive rights provider ignored her doctors requests that she be allowed to take breaks for the sake of her and her babys health.
The outlet wrote: Last winter, Ms. Hairston told the human-resources department for Planned Parenthoods clinic in White Plains, N.Y., that her high blood pressure was threatening her pregnancy. She sent the department multiple notes from her nurse recommending that she take frequent breaks.
Hairston claimed that her supervisors essentially ignored her requests and barely gave her time to rest or to take a lunch break. She claimed that the most emotionally taxing part of the ordeal was that as she was instructing patients that they do all they could to keep themselves and their unborn children well, she knew that she couldnt do the same for herself.
Thats just one example of the abortion mill sidelining, ousting, or otherwise handicapping pregnant employees. It has been revealed that in several of the companys clinics in California, Texas, North Carolina, and New York, managers have declined to hire pregnant job candidates, refused requests by expecting mothers to take breaks and in some cases pushed them out of their jobs after they gave birth.
Not only that, most Planned Parenthood centers do not provide paid maternity leave, though many let new mothers take partially paid disability leave.
Several employees in Miami stated that women at a Planned Parenthood office were scared to tell managers for fear of such consequences. One of them, Caroline Delgado, claimed that It was looked down upon for you to get pregnant.
In a statement to The New York Times, Planned Parenthood Federation of America president Leana Wen acknowledged her companys shortcomings, saying, I believe we must do better than we are now Its our obligation to do better, for our staff, for their families and for our patients. Wen affirmed that they are currently investigating the claims published by the outlet.
Not a good look for an abortion shop and baby-parts vendor hoping to pose as a healthcare provider.
Say one had a motorcycle shop, would you hire someone who hates motorcycles, to sell them?
These women who work for PP, earn their living killing babies, do they really expect PP to actually care about babies?
I somehow am more worried these employees try to reproduce.
