Twenty-six former Meta employees are suing the company, alleging its AI-driven layoff system unfairly targeted workers on medical, parental, or family leave—disproportionately impacting women and those with disabilities. The lawsuit claims Meta’s algorithm ignored protected absences, penalizing workers whose productivity metrics naturally dipped during leave, and failed to pause automated scoring for individual reviews. Despite Meta’s insistence that human managers make final decisions, plaintiffs argue the AI’s design created a discriminatory “disparate impact,” with one employee even warned against taking approved medical leave. The suit seeks to halt terminations until arbitration, warning that final departures could erase critical benefits like health coverage and immigration protections.
