We study CPT-odd non-minimal Lorentz-symmetry violating couplings in the electroweak sector modifying the interactions between leptons, gauge mediators and the Higgs boson. The tree-level (differential) cross sections for three important electroweak processes are discussed: e e− → Z H, e e− → Z Z and γ γ → W+W−. By considering next-generation e e− colliders reaching centerof-mass energies at the TeV scale and the estimated improved precision for the measurements of the respective cross sections, we are able to project upper bounds on the purely time-like background 4-vector as strict as . 10−5 GeV−1, in agreement with previous work on similar Lorentz-violating couplings.
