AARP Research: Age Discrimination Still Rampant in U.S. Workplaces.

 

New study finds widespread inequality.

Six in 10 workers 50-plus have seen or experienced subtle forms of age discrimination at work, according to new research by AARP. While some workplaces are making strides toward equality, age discrimination is still pervasive in many organizations. 

 

This needs to change, particularly as older workers become a larger cohort of the U.S. workforce. Workers 65-plus represent the fastest-growing segment of the labor force, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. They account for more than 60 percent of the projected labor force growth over the 2020–30 decade.
