Read from gamesindustry biz:

A contractor's case states that the publisher and hiring company Aston Carter were involved in actions such as threats, retaliation, and surveillance.

The suit was filed in Washington, the same state in which Nintendo of America operates.

The NLRA labor law states, "The NLRA protects workplace democracy by providing employees at private-sector workplaces the fundamental right to seek better working conditions and designation of representation without fear of retaliation."

The case listing of allegations against Nintendo of America and Aston Carter include:

  • Discharge (including layoff and refusal to hire)
  • Coercive statements (threats, promises of benefits, etc)
  • Concerted activities (retaliation, discharge, discipline)
  • Coercive actions (surveillance, etc)
 
Hopefully, Nintendo can figure out a way to make its workplace a better place to work if these allegations are true.
 
Read from CBR:

Nintendo denied the charges. "We are aware of the claim, which was filed with the National Relations Board by a contractor who was previously terminated for the disclosure of confidential information and for no other reason," Nintendo stated, "Nintendo is not aware of any attempts to unionize or related activity and intends to cooperate with the investigation conducted by the NLRB. Nintendo is fully committed to providing a welcoming and supporting work environment for all our employees and contractors. We take matters of employment very seriously."
