A gender discrimination class action lawsuit against Apple has been initiated by over 12,000 female employees claiming systematic pay inequities. The case, stemming from the discovery of a male colleague's tax form showing a $10,000 salary difference for equivalent roles, focuses on Apple’s compensation policies and hiring practices. The lawsuit, now involving thousands since its filing, alleges that Apple's salary expectations perpetuate disparities, despite California's ban on prior salary inquiries. The judge allowed the case to proceed, rejecting Apple's arguments against class action status and acknowledging claims of sexual harassment by a plaintiff.
A forgotten tax form left on an Apple office printer has sparked a potential gender discrimination class action lawsuit involving more than 12,000 current and former female employees.
The case was initiated by three named plaintiffs, including Justina Jong, who discovered the pay gap in 2019 when she found her male colleague's tax form.
