Employees of Estee Lauder, a leading U.S. manufacturer of personal care products, cosmetics and fragrances, are rising from the company’s affiliation with President Donald Trump led by the heir of the brand and board member Ronald Lauder.
In a letter addressed to President William Lauder, around 100 employees and collaborators urge him to oust his uncle Ronald Lauder.
Indeed, the latter has repeatedly shown political contributions to President Trump. Since he sits on Estee Lauder’s board of directors in 2016, his contributions to pro-Trump organizations would amount to more than $1.6 million.
At a time when the country is marked by anti-racism demonstrations and when the various luxury industry players are expressing their support and promoting equity, Estée Lauder employees share their concern about the negative and racist influence of the heir on relations within the company.
“Ronald Lauder’s involvement with the Estee Lauder Companies is damaging to our corporate values, our relationship with the Black community, our relationship with this company’s Black employees, and this company’s legacy,” the letter states.
The brief statements published by Estee Lauder Group brands, including Clinique, have heightened the disappointment of employees who feel the effort is “insufficient”.
William Lauder and managing director Fabrizio Freda, in an internal memo on June 1, said in response to staff demands that the company would stand up for fairness and fund community groups.
On Thursday, the company announced to its employees that it would donate $1 million to support the black community. The donation was well below the $5 million requested by employees.
The public meeting orchestrated by Estée Lauder on Thursday does not seem to have alleviated the grievances of the workers, who continue to express their dismay.
