The more than 1,000 workers claim Twitter refused to pay promised severance or give them the advance notice of mass layoffs required by law. Twitter denies the claim.

Twitter is refusing to arbitrate legal claims by hundreds of ex-employees who cannot produce copies of employment contracts they signed, after the company successfully moved to have their class action claims sent to arbitration, according to a court filing.

The workers claim Twitter refused to pay promised severance or give them the advance notice of mass layoffs required by law, which the company denies. “It appears obvious that Plaintiffs’ counsel rushed to submit more than 1,000 incomplete and insufficient demands for arbitration for the sole purpose of leveraging large initial case management fees against Twitter,” they wrote.
