Nintendo resolves legal dispute with former worker

A few years ago Nintendo had a strong dispute with one of the testers related to the franchise of Super Smash Bros. , since he was accused of filtration of certain elements before putting the game on sale. However, this issued a lawsuit, since it was unjustly dismissed for asking things in relation to workers' unions and an error that was the fault of the system.

Now , Mackenzie Clifton , you will receive $26,000 in backward payments and damage as part of an agreement with the game manufacturer, according to a document presented before the National Board of Labor Relations . To this is added that in his day he asked for an apology in a letter by Doug Bowler , an element that the union did not request in a mandatory way.

It is mentioned that Nintendo is grateful that a resolution has been reached, this through a statement shared with axis , saying that he focused on ensuring that the work environment remains cozy and support for all employees and associates. So now, unions and groups could be somewhat more permissive.

This is what Clifton commented to the medium of axis regarding the verdict of the demand:

My original objective when presenting the position was to show my co-workers in NOA what their rights are and what happens when they choose to exercise them. In that sense, the terms of this agreement are exactly what I expected to see.

Nintendo Way: Axis

Editor's note: With this it is clear that unions now become a little more common in companies, and although everything originated from an error, it is a positive step for the rights of those who are working in These great corporations.
