OneBSG, the union that represents game studio Bethesda's workers, has filed a legal complaint against Bethesda on claims that it broke labor laws in Canada when it laid off employees in Montreal. In a post on Bluesky, OneBSG alleged that workers were initially told that they would remain employed "until September while the company negotiated severance with our union," only to have the company send termination letters at the end of that week that offered "the bare legal minimum in terms of severance."
