Employment seekers who applied for a job with STV Inc. or STV Construction Inc. in Washington state between Jan. 1, 2023, and July 26, 2025, may be eligible to claim an estimated $1,592.71 from a class action settlement.
STV Inc. and STV Construction Inc. agreed to pay between $281,211.87 and $415,000 to settle a class action lawsuit alleging the companies failed to include required wage scales or salary ranges in job postings for positions based in Washington.
Who can file a claim?
Class members must meet all of the following criteria:
- They applied for a job with STV Inc. or STV Construction Inc. between Jan. 1, 2023, and July 26, 2025.
- The job posting was for a position based in Washington, or they were a Washington-based applicant for a remote or multilocation job.
- The job posting did not disclose a wage scale or salary range.
- They submitted an application through the company’s website or an authorized third-party recruiting channel.
The settlement administrator identified 166 potential class members based on company records.
How much can class members receive?
The minimum settlement fund is $281,211.87 if about half the class (83 out of 166) files claims. For each additional claimant above 83, STV will increase the fund by $1,611.89 per person up to a maximum of $415,000.
Eligible class members who submit a valid claim form can receive an equal share of the net settlement fund. The estimated payment per person is $1,592.71, but the actual amount may vary depending on how many people file claims.
No individual payment will exceed $5,000. If the calculated amount per person exceeds $5,000, the settlement administrator will donate the excess to the Legal Foundation of Washington.
