The former Mitsubishi Morgan Stanley employee Glen Wood who alleges he was punished and dismissed for trying to claim his lawful right to paternity leave has released a video asking for support ahead of his lawsuit hearing in July 5th.
After Wood submitted DNA test results to prove the was indeed the father, the company finally allowed him to take paternity leave.
However, according to the legal statements in Wood’s case, after he informed the firm that he was going to become a single father, he suffered two years of willful mistreatment.
The case first came to public attention in 2017 and attracted a flurry of press articles, since when the 49-year-old Canadian has continued his campaign against paternity harassment.
Glen Wood’s case is about much than his own problems: it is a challenge to the whole corporate culture of Japan.
