Skull & Bones: Investigations against Ubisoft Singapore

Labour law (likewise referred to as labor law or employment regulation) moderates the partnership between employees, using entities, profession unions and also the government. Cumulative work legislation connects to the tripartite partnership between employee, employer and union. Specific labour regulation problems staff members' legal rights at job also with the agreement for job. Work requirements are social standards (in many cases additionally technical standards) for the minimum socially acceptable problems under which employees or professionals are allowed to work. Government companies (such as the previous United States Work Specifications Administration) impose labour law (legislature, regulatory, or judicial).

The Singaporean newspaper The Straits Times reports, the TAFEP (Singapore National Supervisory Authority for Fair Employment Practices) determines the Skull & Bones developer Ubisoft Singapore, after receiving Anonymous information in July.

The whistler made TAFEP attentive to several media articles in which harassment in the workplace and unfair treatment in the Ubisoft branch in Singapore was talking about.

In 2020, the Managing Director of Ubisoft Singapore, Hugues Ricour, was replaced by misconduct allegations and left the studio, but remained employed in the company. In an internal e-mail, which was sent to the employees in November 2020, it was said:

With immediate effect HUGUES RICOUR is no longer Managing Director of Ubisoft Singapore. The results of the leadership test, which has been carried out in recent weeks by our external partners, make it impossible for him to keep this position further.

In October 2020, Ubisoft had published the results of an internal survey conducted in response to several allegations of misconduct in the workplace that had damaged the French publisher's reputation.

The anonymous survey among nearly 14,000 Ubisoft employees revealed that 20 percent of the respondents not fully respected in their work environment and felt 25 percent in the last two years had witnessed misconduct in the workplace or had experienced this.

As a result, CEO Yves Guillemot apologized publicly, and led to the outline of several senior employers and - as Ubisoft claimed - to a series of meaningful structural reforms.

Despite these allegations of UBISOFT management, that you have taken steps to proceed against allegations of sexual harassment and discrimination, not a few employees are still dissatisfied because they believe that the company is only hesitant.

More than 1,000 current and former Ubisoft employees signed an open letter in July, in which they demanded real, fundamental changes within the company, with Activision Blizzard and throughout the industry after the recent wave of disagreements about misconducting Game industry had shaken, which was mainly triggered by a discrimination and harassment action against Activision Blizzard.

In a statement published after the publication of the open letter to VGC, Ubisoft explained that you have the letter carefully read and the mentioned problems very serious take. The company claimed in response to the recent events significant and meaningful changes to improve working conditions, but also admitted that even more work is to do.

However, the group that stands behind the open letter seems insufficient:

Most of our demands have been pushed aside and only a few of our points were addressed.

We are aware that the company has made some improvements, and we are glad to hear that Yves and the leadership team agree that this is not enough.

Ubisoft also protects and promotes well-known offenders and their allies. We see that the management continues to avoid this topic.
