Earlier this week, we reported that Nintendo of America and global hiring firm Aston Carter were hit with an official complaint from a former worker via NLRB, alleging that they interfered with the worker’s rights to unionize among other shady actions.

Since then, Nintendo has released a statement addressing the complaint directly. As shared via Polygon, Nintendo claims that the worker in question was terminated for “disclosure of confidential information” and that they were not aware of the worker’s attempts to unionize or any other related activities. They also intend to fully cooperate with the NLRB’s investigation into the claims:

“We are aware of the claim, which was filed with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) by a contractor who was previously terminated for the disclosure of confidential information and for no other reason. Nintendo is not aware of any attempts to unionize or related activity and intends to cooperate with the investigation conducted by the NLRB.”

“Nintendo is fully committed to providing a welcoming and supportive work environment for all our employees and contractors. We take matters of employment very seriously.”

Given the confidential nature of the topic, it is likely that we will not get the full details about what went down until the NLRB’s investigation concludes, if at all. Stay tuned for more updates as they come.
