Spencer Baculi – Bounding Into Comics – December 9th…
“[…] thanks to approval from the state of California, 9,000 women will be allowed to proceed with a class-action lawsuit against [Disney] on the grounds that the company knowingly paid them less than their male counterparts.
The largest such legal action to ever go forward under the state’s Equal Pay Act and covering employees from the company’s Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, film, TV, ABC, Marvel, and Lucasfilm division, the lawsuit was allowed to move forward on December 8th after Los Angeles Judge Elihu M. Berle rejected the House of Mouse’s attempt to dismiss the case on the grounds that its claims were too broad.
In making her failed argument to the court, Disney attorney Felicia Davis declared such pay discrepancies existed due to the fact that two employees sharing a similar position didn’t necessarily mean their actual workloads were “substantially similar.”
Per Courthouse News, following Judge Berle’s decision, plaintiff’s attorney Loris Andrus told the media, “Disney has been gaslighting us for four years, and today they were proved wrong. This case is not about nine individual plaintiffs. It’s about all the women in California who work for Disney, and who are fed up of being paid less than their male counterparts, and who are seeking fair treatment. That’s all.”
As detailed by the aforementioned Courthouse News, Andrus claims that female Disney employees not only received an average of 2% less in compensation than men in equivalent roles, but that their bonuses and other such incentives were distributed in a confusing and unfair fashion.
The suit’s lead plaintiff, LaRonda Ramussen claimed to have earned varying amounts less, but at least $16,000, than the 6 other men who held same managerial position.”
