The company said it is laying off workers at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center and Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Hospital, both based in Baton Rouge, La., and Our Lady of the Lake Ascension in Gonzales, La.
Most of the affected workers are patient dining associates, cooks, food service workers and shift supervisors, according to the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification filed with state regulators.
“On March 1, Our Lady of the Lake Health began transitioning food and nutrition services at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center, Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Hospital and Our Lady of the Lake Ascension from Morrison to food and nutrition service provided by Sodexo,” the health system said in a statement shared with Becker’s. “Current Morrison food and nutrition services team members have been offered the opportunity to speak with Sodexo representatives about transitioning their role to a like Sodexo position and continue serving in our ministry. We are grateful to both the Morrison and Sodexo teams who are working to ensure a smooth transition that supports our team members, our patients, our guests and our on-site Morrison team members.”
