Boeing to Face Discrimination Suit
- Share via
A federal judge has ruled that 4,800 women at a Boeing Co. plant can proceed with a class-action lawsuit alleging systemic sex discrimination, a lawyer for the women said.
A judge in federal court in Wichita, Kan., certified the class-action suit, which alleges that the Chicago-based company denied the women equal pay, promotions and other employment opportunities solely because of their gender.
Boeing spokesman Ken Mercer said the lawsuit was “without merit” and that Boeing was reviewing its options.
