Ubisoft denies that appointments appear
But in a press release, Ubisoft comes to deny several information published in recent days, especially in social networks. They suggested that Yves Guillemot, chief and co -founder of Ubisoft, as well as a human resources member, would have been cited.
The French editor claims to have “cooperated completely with the authorities” and has no “other comments” to do “out of respect for the legal process.”
However, Ubisoft wishes to remember that measures have been taken from the release and numerum launches, in July 2020. The company evokes in particular the creation of a team specialized in employee relations, as well as a re -foundry of report channels.
