The report could be false although the are several things backing it and one of them is the history of Team Silent who endured a non to pleasent time by Konami during development of the first Silent Hill, some of the workers they'd didn't even want to credit with work or pay at the time, the report also cites a news interview from a former employee which also backs it. I can tell you that if I told one of my workers to take a security role I would have broken the law here in the UK as that's a regulated post someone has to be trained up for over here, if something happened to them while they're filling in that post that would be a huge problem for the company.

Bolded only makes me question this report even more. Again, why would Konami do something so blatantly illegal and dangerous to their own bottom line? I don't even see what that has to do with Konami, again the report doesn't say people aren't being trained for the roles they're being reassigned to.

The point is, there are several ways this report can be interpreted because it offers few details. Interpreting it in the worst way possible even when that interpretation implies they are breaking laws and committing human rights violations left and right is silly.
