Find out the unique aspects of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act and the protections it extends to individuals who are over 40. This new pamphlet spells out which actions violate the act, along with specific steps you can take to avoid age-based discrimination.

From disparate treatment and hostile work environment, to the unique issues involved in age and disability, you learn to recognize situations that could represent age-based treatment of employees — so you can address them before an employee files an EEO complaint.

Plus, you get straightforward analysis of:

• How the Rehabilitation Act may apply to older workers, including possible accommodations for age-related conditions
• When age-based comments can lead to agency liability for harassment
• What to include in a settlement agreement so it doesn’t violate the Older Workers' Benefit Protection Act
• Recent cases showing you what agencies did right or wrong, so you can learn from others’ mistakes
• And more!
