Q. A religious director of a kosher food company, calls the women working as supervisors Mashgachas. One of these women was very insulted for being called that name. What is really their correct title to name them?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that if the men performing that job are called Mashgiach, the female counterpart is named ‘Mashgicha.’
One should apologize for calling someone a perceived insulting name.
