Betrayed: The Legalization of Age Discrimination in the Workplace

Patricia G. Barnes

4.9/5 (34744 ratings)

Description:Almost 50 years after the ADEA’s passage, age discrimination remains epidemic, hidden behind terms such as “long-term unemployment” and “early retirement.” And the problem is trickling down to ever younger workers. Attorney and Judge Patricia G. Barnes shows how a confluence of failures by American institutions have effectively gutted the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA).Did you know:• The new titans of commerce in Silicon Valley openly flaunt the ADEA. Tech workers in their 30s use Botox and hide their families to avoid the appearance of middle age.• The U.S. Supreme Court eviscerated the ADEA in 2009 just as the Great Recession fueled unprecedented incentive for employers to rid their payrolls of higher paid older workers. The U.S. Congress could have helped “fix” the problem by passing the Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act (POWADA) but has not done so. • The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission received 21,296 age discrimination complaints in 2013; the agency filed seven lawsuits with age discrimination claims that year.• Forty percent of workers in households nearing retirement age have no retirement assets whatsoever, whether in an employer-sponsored 401(k) type plan or an IRA. Age discrimination is problematic for younger workers but it is a devastating life-altering catastrophe for older workers. They often are plunged into long-term unemployment or forced to work in poorly-paid part-time or temp work until they age into early retirement, which will result in lower Social Security benefits for the rest of their lives.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
