Union accuses Bethesda of violating labour laws in Canada following layoffs at Montreal studio
The union OneBGS has filed a legal complaint against Bethesda, accusing the company of violating Canadian labor laws following recent layoffs at its Montreal studio. The union alleges that Bethesda issued termination letters to employees, contradicting previous assurances of continued employment until September and offering the minimum legally required severance without union negotiation. These claims follow broader allegations of unlawful layoffs by Xbox, with unfair labor practice charges filed against Microsoft and its subsidiaries.
