If you applied to or worked at Nordstrom in 2023 or later, you may be part of an emerging class action lawsuit.
Nordstrom May Be Violating Washington’s Equal Pay and Opportunities Act
Nordstrom’s hiring and employment practices may violate Washington’s Equal Pay and Opportunities Act (EPOA) — a state law that protects workers’ rights to pay transparency and prohibits illegal wage secrecy practices.
Potential Violations at Nordstrom Include:
- Failure to disclose wage and salary ranges in job postings
- Restrictions on discussing or comparing pay with other employees
- Discriminatory pay differences for workers in the same roles
- Lack of transparency about promotional opportunities
If you experienced any of these issues, you may be eligible to join a class action lawsuit seeking compensation for affected employees and job applicants.
Know Your Rights as an Nordstrom Applicant or Employee
Washington’s Equal Pay and Opportunities Act mandates that employers like Nordstrom must provide:
- Salary history privacy,
- Access to wage and salary information for employees and job seekers,
- Equal pay and career advancement opportunities,

If you engaged in a Nordstrom job search or accepted Nordstrom employment after January 1, 2023, you have a legal right to fair treatment.
