Why IBM employees in Brazil are suing to be classified as tech workers

Unions in two Brazilian states are suing IBM in an effort to be recognized as tech employees, giving them access to better wages, benefits, and profit participation.

IBM is registered as a sales company in Brazil, making its employees ineligible for benefits granted to tech workers.
Workers in the state of Minas Gerais won a lawsuit against the company to be recognized as IT employees.
Galvanized by the successful lawsuit, workers in another state are following suit, opening the possibility for a flood of legal action against IBM.
