We understand the challenged faced by worker over 40, and we want to ensure you are treated fairly. Let us help you secure the compensation you need today if your employer has discriminated against you because of your age.
We want you to know that age discrimination can be hard to detect in the workplace. This is because supervisors and employers know that such discrimination is illegal and will never say that they are acting due to a workers age.
Both the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) and the California Fair Housing and Employment Act (FEHA) protect older workers in this state.
We realize that this type of discrimination shows up in various forms and can include actions when a person is trying to get hired as well as when they are on-the-job.
The EEOC says that older workers face the longest period of unemployment of any age groups when they are looking for a new job.
The law protects workers who make complaints to their supervisors or to human resources about younger employees being favored over older employees or asking older employees to retire. An employer cannot retaliate against an employee for making such a claim, even if it is discovered that there was no age discrimination present.
If you think that your employer has treated you unfairly or fired you because of your age, you should seek legal assistance immediately. Age discrimination is illegal, and the team at the Azadian Law Group, PC is ready to help. We are going to investigate your claims and work to secure the compensation you deserve, including:
