Tribunal Denies Interim Relief in Rockstar Workers Case Over Discord Posts

The Glasgow Employment Tribunal refused the IWGB’s bid for interim relief for Rockstar staff fired over alleged Discord postings related to Grand Theft Auto 6, saying it’s unlikely the dismissals were primarily due to union membership. The ruling notes that some affected workers were non-members (including Canadians), some IWGB-connected staff were not dismissed, and that postings may have been obtained via covert monitoring; some employees were dismissed after little or no notice and for limited ongoing posting. A full hearing will proceed, with Rockstar defending its actions and the IWGB remaining optimistic about the case.
