Workers at Abbott Laboratories' plant in Michigan have raised alarms about unsafe practices reminiscent of those that caused a nationwide baby formula shortage. Employees reported inadequate cleaning of machinery, persistent leaks promoting bacterial growth, and a lack of required pathogen tests. Complaints about unsafe conditions were reportedly met with pressure from supervisors to boost production and retaliation against whistleblowers. The allegations emerge amid a regulatory environment weakened by government cuts, heightening concerns about the safety of baby formula production.
Current and former employees have alleged that the Abbott Laboratories facility has reverted to unsanitary practices, raising concerns about product safety and potential contamination.
Supervisors have pressured workers to prioritize production over safety protocols and there have been reports of retaliation against those who raised concerns.
