Los trabajadores de Double Fine votan a favor de sindicarse con el CWA

Los empleados de Double Fine Productions han votado a favor de formar un sindicato con el Communications Workers of America (CWA). Los 42 trabajadores a tiempo completo y parcial siguen los pasos de iniciativas de sindicación similares en otros estudios de Microsoft.

Double Fine, el estudio detrás de la serie Psychonauts, presentó una solicitud para sindicarse a finales de la semana pasada. El 7 de mayo, los trabajadores anunciaron su decisión de unirse al CWA para preservar los compromisos con la excelencia creativa, la diversidad y la inclusión, y la calidad de vida laboral, según informó el sindicato a Aftermath. Esto sucede tras la solicitud del estudio ante la Junta Nacional de Relaciones Laborales (NLRB) buscando una elección y el reconocimiento voluntario.
