California accuses Activision's HR department of shredding documents related to its ongoing sexual harassment lawsuit
The suit — filed on July 20 to the Los Angeles Supreme Court — comes after a two-year investigation by California's Department of Fair Employment and Housing. It accuses"Call of Duty" maker Activision of fostering a"pervasive frat boy" culture where women are paid less for the same jobs that men perform, regularly face sexual harassment, and are targeted for reporting issues.
The suit focuses on two primary violations — sexual harassment and discriminatory practices — and offers several examples of each. In the case of sexual harassment, female employees reported being hit on, having comments made about their breasts, and jokes about rape being made at work. In one example cited in the lawsuit, "a female employee committed suicide while on a company trip due to a sexual relationship she had been having with her male supervisor."
