Know Your Rights

The federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) prohibits discrimination in the workplace on the basis of age. Under this federal law, persons over the age of 40 are protected from discrimination.

Workplace discrimination can involve various conduct, such as:

• Discrimination in compensation
• Discrimination in advancement
• Discrimination in layoffs
• Discrimination in wrongful termination
• Discrimination in expected job duties
• Discrimination in revocation of medical benefits
• Other employment discrimination

Overcoming Challenges in Age Discrimination Disputes

Age discrimination cases can be difficult at times to pursue. The employer may use the excuse that hiring someone who was younger was a coincidence in their search. We must show that such a situation was a pretext. As in any discrimination claim, subjective feelings are not enough. The victim must show discrimination objectively.
