Title: Age Discrimination - Workplace Fairness
Headings: 
Your Rights Age Discrimination
Content: Here are some examples of potentially unlawful age discrimination: You didn't get hired because the employer wanted a younger-looking person to do the job. You received a negative job evaluation because you weren't "flexible" in taking on new projects. You were fired because your boss wanted to keep younger workers who are paid less. You were turned down for a promotion, which went to someone younger hired from outside the company, because the boss says the company "needs new blood." When company layoffs are announced, most of the persons laid off were older, while younger workers with less seniority and less on-the-job experience were kept on. Before you were fired, your supervisor made age-related remarks about you, for example calling you such as that you were "over-the-hill," or "ancient." If any of these things have happened to you on the job, you may have suffered age discrimination. back to top
