SEATTLE (AP) - Thousands of female employees involved in a gender discrimination lawsuit against the Boeing Co. will be sharing in a $72.5 million settlement in the next few weeks.
Boeing agreed more than a year ago to pay anywhere from $40.6 million to $72.5 million, and documents filed Thursday in U.S. District Court show the final total at the high end.
If the plaintiffs' motion for speedy payment is granted, checks could be in the mail to some 17,960 current and former Boeing employees by Christmas. Otherwise, Boeing has until Jan. 14 to pay a court administrator, who would issue checks.
