Apple Faces Class Action Lawsuit Over Gender Pay Discrimination Affecting 12,000 Female Employees in California
Jun 13, 2024, 11:02 PM
Apple Inc. is facing a proposed class action lawsuit in San Francisco, accusing the tech giant of systematically underpaying over 12,000 female employees compared to their male counterparts. The lawsuit, filed by two female employees, claims that Apple perpetuates gender pay discrimination through biased salary and evaluation practices. It alleges that women in engineering, marketing, and AppleCare divisions receive lower salaries and bonuses due to discriminatory performance reviews. The plaintiffs' attorneys argue that Apple’s practices, including asking applicants for their pay expectations, have resulted in female employees being cheated out of tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars. The lawsuit seeks class-action status and claims violations of the California Equal Pay Act, among other complaints.
