We've written lately about employers discriminating against , and also against the more than. But tomorrow, the Supreme Court will hear arguments in what could turn out to be the biggest employment discrimination lawsuit ever.
The case, Wal-Mart v. Dukes, concerns allegations that America's largest private employer has unfairly paid women less than men, and made it harder for women to advance. But the court isn't being asked to rule on whether Wal-Mart discriminated. Rather, it must decide whether to uphold an appeals court decision that the plaintiffs--six female former Wal-Mart employees who first filed suit in 2001--have satisfied federal class-action rules, allowing the case to go forward.
If the court upholds the lower-court's ruling, it would mean that any woman who has worked at Wal-Mart since December 1998--likely around 1.5 million, or 1 percent of all American females--could join the suit. The expanded roster of potential plaintiffs would make this the largest employment discrimination class action in history, and could potentially expose Wal-Mart--already a bete noir for many on the left--to billions in damages.As Andrew Cohen of the Atlantic , the case--which he calls the biggest of the high court's term--"could dramatically alter the balance of powerin civil cases between corporate defendants and the plaintiffs' bar."
Lawyers for the plaintiffs cite statistics showing that women make up 80 percent of Wal-Mart's hourly workers, but only a third of its managers, and that women make an average of $1,000 a year less than men. Women say in affidavits that they were told men were paid more because they had families to support.
