NFI RoadRail, LLC and NFI Industries, Inc. have reportedly agreed to pay $45,000 to settle a gender discrimination lawsuit. The lawsuit alleged that the companies paid a female director less than three male directors who had worked in the same role. The female director discovered the pay disparity after she saw a pay stub for one of the former male directors. The Equal Pay Act of 1963 prohibits employers from paying women a lower salary than men for equal work. See EEOC v. NFI Industries, No. 3:14-cv-00181 (N.D. Tex. 2014).
