doTERRA, a well-known multi-level marketing company specializing in premium essential oils, has announced a reduction of approximately 7% of its workforce, equating to around 290 employees, as part of a company-wide restructuring effort.

In a statement to 2News, a representative from doTERRA explained that this restructuring aims to “enhance operational efficiency, reduce costs, and secure the company’s future sustainability and success.”

The company’s corporate media relations team emphasized that the decision followed "careful consideration of its profound impact on affected employees," who will be provided with comprehensive support packages. These packages include severance benefits, outplacement services, and extended healthcare benefits.

“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,” the company added.

doTERRA also reaffirmed its commitment to its mission of providing top-tier wellness products and positively impacting its global sourcing communities.

Notably, the company's website did not feature a press release about the layoffs in its news section, though it did highlight recent executive changes in one of its latest updates.
