This title is wrong. The workers who formed a union were not fired or laid off. Their contract was completed, and they were not re-hired.

MODERATORS
real story is always in the comments, even here. And I thought we left the dark times behind to a degree.
Only people who go to college get to leave the dark times behind to a degree. /j
That is my bad, I should have read over the article better instead of skimming it. I apologize.
You can edit titles
That you can. I edited it to show it is misleading and updated the main post.
That's illegal
which it says follows "the end of a fixed term client contract".
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’
It is.
There existing a clear difference between legality and ethics.
