Jeffrey Hill (“Plaintiff” or “Class Representative”), filed a lawsuit against Defendants on behalf of himself and a class of similarly situated applicants. The lawsuit, Jeffrey Hill v. Rivian, LLC, et al., Case No. 25-2-21452-4 SEA (the “Lawsuit”) is currently pending in King County Superior Court before The Honorable Jason Holloway. Plaintiff claimed in the lawsuit that Defendants’ job postings for open positions in Washington did not disclose wage and/or benefits information. Defendants dispute Plaintiff’s claims and contend they have not violated any law and Plaintiff’s claims are without merit.
The Parties have reached a proposed Class Action Settlement. The Proposed Class Action Settlement includes a payment by Defendants of $997,193.20 to $1,497,600.00, depending on how many Class Members submit a claim. On March 25, 2026, the Court issued an order preliminarily approving the Settlement and authorizing the Settlement Administrator, Simpluris, Inc. (“Settlement Administrator”), to issue the Notice and Claim Form.
The Court still has to decide whether to approve the Settlement. No Settlement benefits or payments will be provided unless the Court approves the Settlement, and it becomes final.
Please read the information on this website carefully. Your legal rights are affected regardless of whether you act or do not act. For complete details, please see the Settlement Agreement, the terms of which control.
