SALT LAKE CITY — Pleasant Grove-based doTERRA is laying off 7% of its workforce. That’s around 290 employees.
doTerra said in a statement to KSL that the layoffs are part of a restructuring attempt to reduce costs.
“This restructuring includes global workforce reductions by approximately seven percent, a decision made after careful consideration of its profound impact on affected employees, who will receive comprehensive support packages, including severance benefits, outplacement services, and extended healthcare benefits,” doTERRA’s statement read in part.
The company’s website states it “sources, tests, manufactures, and distributes pure essential oils and natural wellness products to over nine million Wellness Advocates and customers.”
“These difficult decisions are crucial for streamlining operations and continuing to deliver high-quality products to meet the needs of Wellness Advocates and customers around the world,” doTERRA said in the statement.
“doTERRA remains dedicated to its mission of offering top-tier wellness products and making a positive impact on its global sourcing communities. ”
