Disney settles gender pay lawsuit for $43 million, affecting 9,000 female employees.

Disney agreed to pay $43 million to settle a lawsuit alleging gender pay disparity, impacting about 9,000 female employees. LaRonda Rasmussen initially filed the lawsuit in 2019 after discovering male colleagues with the same job title earned more. Disney, which disputed the claims but did not admit fault, will hire a labor economist to assess and address pay equity among California employees for three years. The settlement awaits approval by a judge.
