Age discrimination involves treating someone (an applicant or employee) less favorably because of his or her age. The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) only forbids age discrimination against people who are age 40 or older. It does not protect workers under the age of 40, although some states do have laws that protect younger workers from age discrimination.
The Age Discrimination in Employment Act. The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as subsequently amended, provides specific protection for employees and those seeking employment who are aged 40 years or older, with respect to hiring, promotion, discharge, pay, etc. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or EEOC, enforces this act.
