That's illegal
Not in this case. Their contract expired, and they were not re-hired. That is not illegal.
Ah I see.
Is it?
These people didn’t work for BioWare, didn’t have a CBA with BioWare, and the company they do have a CBA with says their contract with the client (BioWare) ended.
This is exactly how it’s supposed to happen, except the hysterical media used the word ‘laid off’ instead of ‘completed their contract’
The contract wasn't terminated, it was expired. They signed a contract with an end date, the end date was met, the contract wasn't signed again. Termination would be if the contract was abruptly ended before the expiration date, which was not the case.
It is.
There existing a clear difference between legality and ethics.
