Pratt & Whitney, a unit of aerospace and defense giant RTX, remains the sole defendant in a high-stakes lawsuit alleging a conspiracy to restrict hiring and recruitment, as reported by MikeScarcella. This follows a settlement between the plaintiffs and Belcan Engineering, previously a co-defendant in the case. The lawsuit, which is a proposed class action, accuses Pratt & Whitney of engaging in 'no poach' practices that limit competition for skilled labor. Additionally, Pratt & Whitney Canada, another RTX unit, faces a separate $150 million lawsuit for allegedly stifling competition in the market for used engines and parts for regional commercial aircraft and other applications.
