Abstract

RTX Corp., the world's largest aerospace and defense company, is facing a proposed class-action lawsuit alleging discrimination against older workers in hiring. The lawsuit claims that the company reserves many jobs for recent college graduates, excluding candidates who are 40 or older. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has already ruled that RTX rejected a 67-year-old applicant because of his age and that the company's job advertisements used language that discriminated against older workers. The lawsuit aims to raise awareness about discriminatory language in job postings and potentially hold other companies accountable. [Extracted from the article]
