Send to email | Tecmo Employees Sue Tecmo (Tecmo Seems Fucked) [Tecmo In Trouble] in Tecmo in trouble Breaking Legal News Ninja Gaiden 2 Tecmo tomonobu itagaki Top | By Brian Ashcraft el 17-Jun-2008 | First Dead or Alive creator Tomonobu Itagaki sues former employer Tecmo, now this. On June 16th, two Tecmo employees filed suit with the Tokyo District Court for unpaid wages, demanding 8.3 million yen (US$77,000) in payment. According to the suit, the workers were illegally placed on a "flexible hours" work scheme, starting four years ago. From that point, overtime wasn't paid, apparently. The plaintiffs represent all 300 Tecmo employees and contest that because of this dubious employment structure, overtime for the employees exceeded over 100 hours per month in unpaid overtime. Tecmo developer Hiroaki Ozawa is one of the plaintiffs in the case, and since February has headed up the "Tecmo Labor Union". The suit even claims that Tecmo has created false documents and has covered up accounting documents. Officials are looking into whether Tecmo has violated labor laws. Things look bad for Tecmo. Very, very bad. ????????????? [jiji via my game news flash] ????????????2???????????? [Game Watch Impress]
