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.
