A former Peloton instructor is suing the personal fitness company for $1.8 million, alleging he was wrongly dismissed and that it created a hostile work environment.
McKenna, who joined Peloton in December 2020, quickly became a popular trainer on the platform, but tore a tendon in his pectoral muscles this spring and needed surgery, according to his lawsuit. He went on disability to recover from surgery and returned in May, court documents state.
The suit accuses Cotter of telling McKenna that his employment was in jeopardy because he had taken disability leave. His lawyers argue that McKenna was allowed to take the leave under New York State law because he was a full-time Peloton employee. McKenna taught his last Peloton class on September 11 and was let go the next day, according to the suit.
"Mr. McKenna repeatedly requested that Peloton provide a written basis for his termination and no detailed, descriptive or factual explanation was provided," the lawsuit states. McKenna is suing Peloton for disability discrimination, breach of contract and retaliation. He is seeking $300,000 in pain and suffering damages, $500,000 in back and front pay, as well as $1 million in punitive damages.
