[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 537254, member: 927"] As with most things, the answer is "it depends". ADEA says you cannot discriminate because of age. It also says that its okay to let someone go if "differentiation is based on reasonable factors other than age". Did this person's job get cut? Is this person the poorest performer (and the performance difference is not due to age). That being said, organizations are wary about letting someone go who is older, female, or a minority due to the probability of a lawsuit. I believe the burdon of proof falls on the company to show that those factors did not play into the termination. P-Man [/QUOTE]
