What happened
Washington's Equal Pay and Opportunities Act (RCW 49.58.110) requires employers to include the wage scale or salary range in job postings. Plaintiff Jeffrey Hill alleged that Rivian's Washington job postings consistently omitted this required pay information, leaving applicants without the wage transparency the law is designed to provide. Plaintiff contended that these omissions affected all individuals who applied for Rivian positions in Washington during the class period.
Rivian denies the allegations and denies any wrongdoing or liability. The parties agreed to settle to avoid the cost, uncertainty, and time of continued litigation. The settlement covers Rivian, LLC; Rivian Insurance Services, LLC; and Rivian Automotive, LLC.

After attorneys' fees ($441,792), costs ($5,000), and the class representative's service award (up to $25,000) are deducted, the remainder is divided equally among all claimants.
