Backstage News On WWE's Reply To Concerns Of Work
Added 2020-04-21 19:57:45 +0000 UTC"These accusations aren’t true. Employees know they can confidentially go to HR, not the public. Notwithstanding the appropriate protocol, no one would be fired if they were uncomfortable with their surroundings. We’ve made accommodations for individuals upon request" - WWE reply to the complaint earlier today as outlined in this article ( https://www.fightful.com/wrestling/wwe-employee-submitted-public-comment-saying-they-are-being-forced-work-during-pandemic)
From what we've heard, WWE's response is actually how things have went there. We've heard from multiple employees that they aren't being forced to work, but also aren't comfortable with letting the company know they don't want to, especially after the layoffs.

HR departments like to tell themselves the opposite though. It's cute.
