A review of current empirical research concerning discrimination at work

Abstract

Looks at the US federal Age Discrimination in Employment (ADEA) and gives statistics to suggest that more and more workers fall under the umbrella of this act. Gives a brief summary of its history before providing two case studies as examples. Concludes that the ussue remains prevalent and will probably increase as workers are getting older on average. Gives a brief technique for employer protection.
