'This is classic union busting dressed up in tech industry jargon,' a statement from Google organizers reads.
ByActivists within Google have accused the technology giant of firing four employees in an attempt to"crush" workers' dissent.
The two workers who had been put on leave before being fired on Monday, Rebecca Rivers and Laurence Berland, had spoken out at the rally.last week, protest organizers said both workers had been put on leave for accessing documents unrelated to their roles. While organizers said they were aware that Google had been making efforts to tighten its internal security, they said the company has sought to use those policy changes as an"excuse to retaliate against organizers."
"Let's be clear, looking at such documents is a big part of Google culture; the company describes it as a benefit in recruiting, and even encourages new hires to read docs from projects all across the company," they added.
