Chilean national Nicole Porter (30) started working at Coronet Peak ski field as head custodian for NZ Ski on May 29. An event poster from NZ Ski encouraged staff to "Let those romantic and creative juices flow, to show your affections and/or appreciation for your woo'ee. NZ Ski also carried out an investigation led by human relations manager Kate Batkin. NZ Ski said that wasn't possible and that she needed to confirm in writing if she would continue her role as head custodian or resign, she claims. Porter claimed she felt cornered and resigned on July 29, and said she later struggled to get work as a pregnant woman.
