Answer to Question 2

Age discrimination involves denying a job or promotion to an individual solely on the basis of his or her age. According to the U.S. Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1986, workers over age 40 are legally protected. Age discrimination often occurs during hiring decisions and is often covert. Example of techniques include using retirement incentives to get rid of older workers, setting physical or mental criteria that would work against older workers, or relying on age-based stereotypes in raise, promotion, or hiring decisions.
