A Superior Court judge, on Friday, agreed to certify a class of female plaintiffs suing the Walt Disney Company over a gender pay gap.

“Disney has been gaslighting us for four years, and today they were proved wrong,” said plaintiff’s attorney Lori Andrus, after the hearing. “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.”

Andrus said that women at Disney earn, on average, 2% less than men doing roughly the same jobs, not including bonuses and other incentive plans, which Andrus also believes are doled out in an unequal manner. The lead plaintiff in the complaint, LaRonda Rasmussen, worked as a manager in 2017 and earned $109,958 per year — lower than each of the six men that held the same job title, and more than $16,000 less than the lowest paid man in the same job.

Five months after Rasmussen complained to human resources about the pay gap, she was told the discrepancy “was not due to gender.”
