Description
"In 1907, the editor of The New York Times wrote, "Employers, naturally, look to the young. A man or woman of advanced years is too apt to be given to old-fashioned ways of doing things, and open to suspicion of having the unforgivable fault, in modern business, of slowness."". "Age discrimination has existed throughout the 20th century, sometimes in the public eye and sometimes not. This book examines the employment sector in the United States: treatment by the media, the extent of age bias, how older workers were viewed, the rationales presented by businesses for refusing to hire older workers or for getting rid of them, and the responses of various levels of government. Some foreign data are used for comparison purposes."--BOOK JACKET.
