Individuals who applied for a job in Washington state with Rivian LLC, Rivian Insurance Services LLC or Rivian Automotive LLC between Jan. 1, 2023, and March 25, 2026, may qualify to claim a cash payment from a class action settlement.
Rivian agreed to pay between $997,193.20 and $1,497,600 to settle a class action lawsuit alleging it failed to disclose wage and/or benefits information in job postings for positions in Washington as required by state law.
Who can file a claim?
Class members must meet all of the following criteria:
- They applied for a job opening in Washington with Rivian LLC, Rivian Insurance Services LLC or Rivian Automotive LLC between Jan. 1, 2023, and March 25, 2026.
- The job posting for the position they applied for did not disclose the wage scale or salary range for the position or a general description of all benefits and other compensation to be offered to the hired applicant OR
- They otherwise have a claim against Rivian for any claims arising out of or relating to a violation of RCW 49.58.110, including claims for relief under RCW 49.58.060, RCW 49.58.070 and/or RCW 49.58.110, actual damages, statutory damages, interest and attorneys’ fees and costs.
The settlement administrator used Rivian’s records to identify eligible class members. There are approximately 624 class members.
Class members who applied for more than one position are still considered a single class member. Current or former employee who applied for a new position during the relevant period may also be eligible.
How much can class members receive?
Class members who submit a valid claim form are eligible to receive an equal share of the net settlement fund. The total settlement fund ranges from $997,193.20 (minimum) to $1,497,600 (maximum) depending on how many class members submit claims.
The settlement administrator will distribute the minimum fund ($997,193.20) if 50% or fewer of the 624 class members (i.e., 312 or fewer) submit valid claims. For every additional participating class member above 312, the defendant will increase the net settlement fund by $1,603.85 up to the maximum settlement fund of $1,497,600.
Each participating class member will receive an equal share up to a maximum of $5,000 per person. If the calculated individual share exceeds $5,000, the settlement administrator will distribute the excess as residual funds to the Legal Foundation of Washington.
The settlement administrator will report payments as nonwage damages on IRS Form 1099.
