Team Ninja and Tecmo reaches settlement for unpaid overtime lawsuit |
Ó
After the tumultuous past couple of months for Team Ninja and Tecmo, a beam of light is finally found at the end of the tunnel. A settlement has finally been reached for Team Ninja members who filed a complaint back in July against Tecmo for unpaid overtime.The suit originally claimed that Tecmo placed workers on a "flexible hours" work scheme four years ago, and since then, overtime wasn't paid. Plaintiffs represented all 300 Tecmo employees and demanded for 8.3 million yen (US$ 77,000). The lawsuit also alleged that Tecmo had false documents to cover up for the accounting documents.
And now, a settlement has been reached last September 1. The translation of the released statement is below:
Regarding the litigation against our company, on September 1st a settlement was reached as indicated below:
Settlement for the Lawsuit Has Been Reached
On July 16th, two of our employees brought suit against our company regarding unpaid overtime in the Tokyo District Court and presented a proposed settlement. On September 1, 2008, a judicial settlement was reached.
Now that that's over, will we be seeing Itagaki and Tecmo making peace anytime soon?
