班加罗尔:超过3000名员工认识到在脸书做内容审核员的员工对这家IT公司和脸书提起了集体诉讼,指控他们造成心理创伤和创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)。诉状称,索赔总额超过500万美元。

今年10月,Cognizant公司宣布,Facebook内容审核业务的约6000名员工可能会被要求离职。该公司随后表示将退出这项业务,并将努力为相关员工寻找新的住所。内容审查员会删除违反社交网站或应用程序使用条款的在线内容。

初步传票及投诉已于2月11日送达Cognizant。原告Debrynna Garrett和Clifford Jeury随后于3月7日提交了修改后的集体诉讼,并要求陪审团审判。该课程的成员是佛罗里达州和亚利桑那州的公民。

修改后的诉状提出了故意侵权的索赔-或故意隐瞒或歪曲已知的危险和疏忽。申诉人还声称,成员遭受创伤后应激障碍和其他心理障碍,包括心脏病发作、中风和癫痫在内的身体伤害,失去工资,失去未来的赚钱能力,情绪困扰和失去生活乐趣。当《印度时报》联系Cognizant时,该公司拒绝就诉讼置评。

诉状要求为受影响的人设立医疗监测基金。它还寻求补偿性损害赔偿,包括但不限于工资损失、医疗费用、未来赚钱能力的损失、精神痛苦和生活享受的损失以及合理的诉讼费用和律师费。受影响的主持人要求基线筛查、评估和诊断性检查,以协助诊断不利的健康影响,二级干预措施,以减少创伤后应激障碍的风险,三级干预措施,以减轻创伤后应激障碍患者的症状,以及基于证据的治疗,以帮助个人康复。

\"Class<\/figure> BENGALURU: Over 3,000 employees of Cognizant<\/a> who work as content moderators for Facebook have filed a class-action complaint against the IT company and Facebook for allegedly causing psychological trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The complaint said the claims exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate.

This is a fallout of Cognizant's announcement in October that about 6,000 of its employees in the content moderation business for Facebook may be asked to go. The company had then said it would exit this business, and would try to find new homes for the employees involved. Content moderators remove online material that violate the terms of use for social networking sites or applications.

The initial summons and complaint were served to Cognizant on February 11. The plaintiffs, Debrynna Garrett and Clifford Jeury, then filed an amended class-action complaint on March 7 and demanded jury trial. The class members are citizens of Florida and Arizona.
