Rockstar Games employees in the UK began voting on November 12 on whether the company will formally recognize their union. According to The Register, more than 1,600 employees are eligible to take part. Voting ends on November 26, one week after GTA 6 launches.
What the ballot would change
The Rockstar Game Workers Union is part of the UK’s IWGB. If employees back the proposal, they could negotiate collectively on pay, overtime, bonuses and leave. The proposed agreement also includes consultation over personnel policies and the use of AI.
Support from the US
The US performers’ union SAG-AFTRA published a statement of support. The recognition proposal followed four months of talks, and the outcome depends on the employees’ vote.
