Melissa Sorenson is a former Paparazzi worker.
Sorenson was terminated in January 2022. The circumstances of the termination haven’t been disclosed by herself or Paparazzi.
What we do know, courtesy of a chatlog exhibit, is Sorenson feels she was “wrongfully terminated”.
To that finish she’s filed a number of complaints with state and federal labor regulators.
The Papa Chat United chat logs had been filed as an exhibit, accompanying a submitting from Paparazzi requesting a Short-term Restraining Order.
The submitting was made in a lawsuit Paparazzi initiated towards Sorenson and a number of other former Paparazzi consultants.
Within the chat log exhibit, Sorenson discloses she’s lodged complaints with the Occupational Security and Well being Administration (each federal and Utah), and the Division of Labor.
Cited correspondence between Sorenson, the Division of Labor and Utah Labor Fee states;
As was mentioned, your grievance has been discovered warranted per our preliminary investigation and is being referred to the State of Utah to open an official investigation which we can be aiding in.
A mediation assembly was scheduled between Sorenson and Paparazzi on February twenty third. In line with Sorenson, Paparazzi did not attend.
Additionally they by no means confirmed as much as mediation yesterday and it’s irritating .. like I’m not value their time, can’t be bothered idk ugh
Elsewhere within the chat Sorenson particulars what the Utah OSHA are investigating;
They stated they’re going to be investigating the jewellery, the security controls within the machines and emergency gear (fireplace extinguishers) in addition to speaking to different present staff to see in the event that they (are) ever notified of somebody sick at work or if they’re advised to return into work sick.
Sorenson claims different Paparazzi staff have additionally lately stop resulting from “the bullying or dara or security and well being points and many others.”
Sorenson states the rationale she’s filed complaints towards Paparazzi is she
need(s) them to be held accountable what they’ve finished and do higher.
Sorenson claims Paparazzi has triggered her “a whole lot of headache and harm”.
At the least one different member of the chat seems to have filed a grievance with the Utah OSHA.
Cited correspondence states the grievance was made relating to “alleged security and well being hazards at Paparazzi Equipment”.
Because of the complainant not being a present Paparazzi worker, Utah OSHA informs them they can’t notify them “of the outcomes of our investigation”.
However please be assured that we’ll appropriately examine your grievance to see if there are any OSHA violations at this location.
I imagine these investigations stem from the discovering of poisonous metals in Paparazzi’s jewellery.
The present standing of any regulatory investigations into Paparazzi is unknown.
