Age Discrimination at Work
Age discrimination, or ageism, is against the law. As an employee, you should get and keep your job based on your ability, not your age. Fortunately, the Government has acknowledged this growing problem in work places and enacted the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). This federal law protects employees age 40 and over from discrimination in their jobs because of age and states that your employer may not fire, refuse to hire, or treat you differently than other employees because of your age. Recently, a male employee won an $11 million dollar verdict against his employer after proving he was fired as a result his age, which his employer considered too old.
