Roblox Corp. faces a federal lawsuit alleging the exploitation of minors for unpaid game development work.
The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, claims the platform's jobs hub employs children without real-world currency compensation.
A parent of a Roblox user filed the suit, citing violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act and California labor laws.
The legal action targets the company's game-building model for failing to meet minimum wage and child labor provisions.
This case joins several other pending lawsuits against Roblox regarding child safety and platform protection.
