AGE BIAS HAS NO PLACE IN THE LOS ANGELES OR CALIFORNIA WORKPLACE
In California, there are laws that protect employees aged 40 and older from age discrimination, or being treated adversely because of your age. This means that your employer cannot discriminate against you (fire you, demote you, not hire you, etc…) just because you are older than 40. It is especially important in this economy to make sure that you are not being let go or fired for an unlawful reason. An experienced employment attorney can help make sure your rights are protected.
When an 89 year old women was reprimanded for a mistake she allegedly made while at work, her employer told her to take a 6 month vacation and that her job would be waiting for her when she returned. She didn’t want to. So, she stood up for herself and called the HR department and learned that hse didn’t have to. As a result, her boss allegedly fired her in retaliation. The woman took legal action.
