Unions in two Brazilian states are suing IBM in an effort to be recognized as tech employees, giving them access to better wages, benefits, and profit participation.
  • IBM is registered as a sales company in Brazil, making its employees ineligible for benefits granted to tech workers.
  • Workers in the state of Minas Gerais won a lawsuit against the company to be recognized as IT employees.
  • Galvanized by the successful lawsuit, workers in another state are following suit, opening the possibility for a flood of legal action against IBM.
