According to foreign media reports, Steam is currently facing a lawsuit by a former transsexual employee, asking for compensation for $ 3 million because of "gender discrimination".

The employee pointed out that after he completed the transsexual surgery, his supervisor said that she was "it", and she pointed out in the complaint that Valve was a very unfriendly working environment.

According to Polygon, the lawsuit was submitted to the court in April 2016. When the court began on May 20, Valve denied all the accusations of the former employee and asked the court to not accept the case.

Polygon reported that the transgender was originally a former translator of Valve. In 2012, she informed Valve that she needed to settle in Los Angeles because her doctor was in this city, so she could go to work during her recovery.Valve agreed with her request.However, the condition is that Valve has re -classified her work identity into "independent contract workers".

As for why she left Valve, earlier this year, she wrote to the Valve Human Resources Department and complained that Valve hired unpaid translators, and some of them were "very young minors."

Just a few days after she wrote, she found that she was opened.According to her, Valve said her work was transferred to the company Washington headquarters, but even if she agreed to go to Washington, Valve refused again.

Therefore, she said that the real reason for being expelled was that she had previously complained to the human resources department (the letter). At that time, she said that Valve's working environment was very unfriendly, and there were illegal business behaviors (hiring children's workers).In addition, the employee also stated that he was also degenerating the reason that Valve decided to expel her one of the reasons.

The complaint stated that her direct superiors called her "it", which was a "great insult" to the transgender people.

In the end, the former employee's request was damaged. Special harm and income loss each compensated $ 1 million.In addition, she also asked Valve to return the wages and fines owed for a total of $ 150,000.
