Abstract

Sets out the US law concerning age discrimination and looks at how recent court cases have ruled out the “ burden of proof” that the employee have to show before winning an age discrimination case. Summarizes the legal protection given by the Age Discrimination Employment Act against discrimination in recruitment, again quoting case law to show how this law is being applied.
