ADEA for Employees

Learning objectives
- Gain an understanding of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act and how it applies to employees. Learn about the law, who it covers, and why someone might waive their rights.
Course overview
While its 'been against the law to discriminate against an applicant or employee based on age for more than half a century, age discrimination remains a problem. In 2022, the EEOC received over 73,000 age discrimination complaints, a 20% increase over the previous year. This makes it even more important for employees to understand legislation around age discrimination. In this course, we'll cover the Age Discrimination in Employment Act: what it is, who it covers, and why someone might waive their rights.
