Grindr (GRND) allegedly discouraged a unionization attempt last year by illegally imposing a return-to-office policy resulting in the termination of 83 workers, according to a complaint filed by the US National Labor Relations Board.
The complaint also alleges that Grindr presented employees with an unlawful severance agreement and refused to recognize and negotiate with the employees' union, the labor board's spokesperson Kayla Blado told MT Newswires in an email.
An administrative law judge hearing on the complaint is scheduled for March 25, 2025, unless a settlement is reached, Blado added.
"We believe the NLRB Los Angeles regional Office's allegations are meritless," a Grindr spokesperson told MT Newswires. "Our decision to transition from fully remote to hybrid work in 2023 predated the union election petition."
"It was only after it was known that the transition back to in-office work was underway that some employees began signing union cards," the company's spokesperson added.
