As reported by GamesIndustry.biz the CWA is asking for an investigation because during the filings that followed the Microsoft deal announcement, Activision Blizzard filed papers saying, " to the knowledge of the company, there are no pending activities or proceedings of any labor union, trade union, works council or any similar labor organization to organize any employees of the company or any of its subsidiaries". Of course, Raven Software employees had been striking since December. Additionally, the company's filing to the SEC also stated that, "there are no legal proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the company, threatened against the company or any of its subsidiaries or against any present or former officer or director of the company or any of its subsidiaries in such individuals capacity as such that would have a company material adverse effect". These statements, since Activision Blizzard faced a weeks-long Raven strike, and not just employee walkouts and dissatisfaction, including strike action, and potential unionization at one of the company's subsidiaries, but multiple investigations and legal actions that are still ongoing, have led the CWA to request a new investigation.
