The report would be expected to disclose:

• Total number of disputes settled by the company, and the amount of money spent doing so
• Progress towards reducing the average amount of time taken to resolve such complaints, either internally or through litigation
• Total number of pending complaints regarding sexual abuse, harassment or discrimination
• Amount of hours worked and pay issued, as required by the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH)

The report would not involve revealing any individual names or details, but Activision claimed that "disclosing data about such matters, even on an aggregated basis, could potentially reveal more information about an individual employee's allegations than that employee would wish to reveal, while excluding that data at an employee's request could lead to public reports that are misleading and not helpful to shareholders."
