Activision Blizzard will pay $18mn to settle EEOC lawsuit
The US Equal Opportunity Commission (EEOC) recently filed a lawsuit against Activision Blizzard, alleging that its employees faced harassment and discrimination. Rather than let the lawsuit go to court, Activision has already agreed to create an $18mn (roughly more than £13mn) fund to compensate employees. Any left over funds will either be donated to charity or used to create diversity and inclusion initiatives at the company.
Activision is still facing a similar lawsuit which was filed back in July by the state of California and also accused the company of fostering a toxic workplace culture.
