Age Discrimination
If you are treated unfairly by the company where you work or within an organization where
you belong because of your age (if you have the legal rights to work in that profession),
there are government protections that have been put into place for your protection.
Age discrimination includes loss of benefits due to age. Age discrimination also
includes wage discrimination. Within the laws of age discrimination, the government
has certain exceptions. If you feel you’ve been the victim of age discrimination,
you should talk to a qualified attorney or file a claim with the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission.
Many states have adopted laws that provide further age discrimination protection.
