Over 200 staff at GTA 6 developers Rockstar North have signed a letter to management calling for the “immediate reinstatement” of 31 workers fired recently by the company. Rockstar claimed they fired these staffers for “gross misconduct”, subsequently accusing them of sharing confidential info publicly. UK union the IWGB, of which the fired staff were members, have accused Rockstar of union busting and filed legal claims against the company.
The union have also held protests outside Rockstar North and Take-Two’s UK offices.
It’s great to see staff coming together to voice their concerns and support for their colleagues. Solidarity in the workplace can really make a difference. Hopefully, management will take this into consideration.
