Walk It Through: The Comment at Work

Remarks about age, a job posting that says recent graduates, and a lawsuit years later.

A manager keeps telling an older employee that it is time to retire, in front of others.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

Age remarks and a job posting at a private employer. Federal age discrimination law and its shorter filing deadlines, a public employer, and a union grievance are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
