A British Columbia court approves a $4.5-million settlement in a class-action lawsuit alleging workplace harassment by WestJet involving flight attendants. The settlement is approved by the court, according to a law firm representing the plaintiffs.
The outlets report that the settlement is intended to cover more than 3,400 current and former female flight attendants. The law firm says the agreement applies to eligible members of the class. While all sources describe the same approved settlement and overall scope, they do not provide additional details in the provided excerpts about specific allegations, defendants’ responses, or the settlement’s allocation among class members.
Across the coverage, the emphasis is consistent: the approval status, the settlement amount, and the class size. The Winnipeg Free Press and other outlets frame the announcement as coming from the plaintiffs’ law firm, without citing new factual findings beyond the court approval.
