A former PlayStation employee is again suing the company in a potential class action gender discrimination lawsuit after a federal judge dismissed her first lawsuit last month.
Former PlayStation employee Emma Majo is again suing PlayStation in a potential class action gender discrimination lawsuit, this time in California, after a federal judge dismissed her first lawsuit last month.Sony, like other video game companies before it, faces allegations it had a sexist workplace.that she was fired after complaining about gender bias, has encountered more judicial skepticism in the early going than others.The new, narrower complaint is no longer national.
The new lawsuit largely collects allegations made in Majo’s original November complaint and those of several other women who work or worked at PlayStation andIncidents involve women allegedly being passed up for promotions as men in the same department advance, unequal pay, retaliation, dismissive comments about women’s abilities and a Deloitte study that is said to have found that Sony had a “very low” percentage of women in management positions compared to peers.
At the time, they said Majo's "widespread claims of harassment are based solely on unactionable allegations of run-of-the-mill personnel activity." It's impossible to judge at this stage of the revisions to Majo's filing can prevail over such arguments.
