SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 30 — A California federal judge has refused to dismiss a lawsuit accusing X, the social media service formerly called Twitter, of disproportionately laying off older workers when Elon Musk acquired the company last year.
Zeman, for example, claims X laid off 60 per cent of workers who were 50 or older and nearly three-quarters of those who were over 60, compared with 54 per cent of employees younger than 50. The judge dismissed a claim that X intentionally targeted older workers for layoffs, but gave Zeman a month to file an amended lawsuit fleshing out that claim.
Those cases include various claims, including that X laid off employees and contractors without the required advance notice and that Musk forced out workers with disabilities by refusing to allow remote work and calling on employees to be more “hardcore.”
