Abstract:

The Framework Directive on Equal Treatment in Employment and Occupation applies to all those in employment, with respect to preventing discrimination on the grounds of age. This article is concerned with the effects of this upon young workers, rather than older workers who are the traditional focus for much of the research on age. Consideration is given to relevant cases at the European Court of Justice (ECJ), as well as in the UK. There is also an examination of the limited research done on this subject and a justification of the need for more.

Abstract:

Age discrimination is the only protected characteristic contained in the Equality Act 2010 where it is possible to justify both direct and indirect discrimination. In relation to all the other protected characteristics, such as in race and sex discrimination, there is no possibility of justifying direct discrimination. The test, deriving from Art. 6 of the Framework Directive on Equal Treatment in Employment and Occupation (Directive 2000/78/EC), provides that the employer will need to show that they have a legitimate aim and that the potentially discriminatory action taken is a proportionate means (appropriate and necessary) of achieving that aim.

Abstract:

Is there a sound model for the United Kingdom (UK) to adopt should it decide to legislate against age discrimination in employment? In this article the writer attempts to answer this question first, by outlining existing UK sex and race discrimination laws and then progressing to an examination of long-standing American legislation and caselaw in this area. Finally, it explores the Irish Employment Equality Act, 1998, a composite and comprehensive act which prohibits discrimination in employment based on ‘age’ and eight other grounds. The strengths and weaknesses of each of these laws are examined in turn and measured against each other. The final analysis would suggest that each of these models can usefully inform any future law-making process to a greater or lesser degree and that good practice and legislation can co-exist in harmony. Moreover, the present lack of legislation in the UK against age discrimination in any area but especially employment, is remarkable when compared with British laws on sex and race discrimination and is ultimately unwise in the face of the real need for remedies and, the present and growing expansion in numbers of that portion of the population and the working population which British and European society call ‘old.’

Abstract:

The likelihood of age discrimination in relation to employment increases the older a person becomes. The concern is that, partly as a result of this discrimination, large numbers of older workers leave the workforce and become economically inactive. This in turn brings increased pressures on the remaining members of the workforce and increased pressures on public finances in relation to pensions and healthcare. The Equal Treatment in Employment and Occupation Directive (2000/78/EC) approaches this problem by introducing the principle of equal treatment in a number of areas related to employment, including age. The reasons for action on age discrimination rests upon two potentially conflicting justifications. The first is a human rights one based upon the right of all persons to equality before the law and the second is one concerned with implementing EC Employment Guidelines on integrating disadvantaged groups into the workforce. This second justification is likely to lead to a much more pragmatic approach which in turn may compromise the principle of equality of treatment. This article, uses survey material, to argue that the potential conflict between an equal treatment approach and the functional, more pragmatic, approach may lead to a lessening of the effectiveness of measures prohibiting age discrimination.

Abstract:

AbstractThis Article argues that a universal approach to age discrimination promotes justice (including intergenerational justice) and efficiency. As explained herein, legal regimes regulate age discrimination in employment in various ways. While some regimes create specific anti–age discrimination legislation, others ban most kinds of employment discrimination, including age discrimination, in a general way. These latter promote a universal approach to age discrimination. The current Article explores the theoretical justifications for either a particularistic or a universal approach to age discrimination. Additionally, it enriches its theoretical discussion by taking and presenting a snapshot of current litigation in Israel – a country that has adopted a universal approach to age discrimination.

Abstract:

As the contrast between supply and demand in China's labor market continues to be tilted toward the buyer, it is not uncommon for workers to suffer discrimination in the process of job hunting, among which age discrimination is the most common, widespread and involved type. In contrast to the frequent occurrence of age discrimination in employment, there are gaps in the existing laws and research on the regulation of age discrimination in employment during the job-seeking stage.Based on this, this paper starts from the phenomenon of age discrimination in employment at the job search stage, analyzes its causes, the nature of the problem, as well as the identification criteria, regulation methods and relief measures of the problem of age discrimination in employment, in order to put forward targeted legal regulation ideas in the context of "age discrimination in employment during the job-seeking stage of workers".

Abstract:

This article examines the Employment Directive from the age perspective and endorses a life course approach to ageing. It explores the permitted exclusions on grounds of age and especially the exceptional justification for direct age discrimination, contained in Article 6. In the end, EU Member States may find it more difficult to successfully transpose Article 6 than they imagine. The article reveals special challenges for age and refers to age laws in Ireland and the USA, in particular. It also refers to preparations for transposition in a number of Member States, including the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. Whether and to what extent age will ultimately receive the least protection of all the new grounds, remains to be seen and will depend largely on the individual approaches of the Member States. The ultimate consequence of the additional opportunities for excluding or justifying age discrimination may well be different protected areas throughout the EU.

Abstract:

Abstract: This article argues that there is a contradiction contained within the Framework Directive on Equal Treatment in Employment and Occupation and the UK Government?s proposals for implementing it. There is a distinction between the business justification for encouraging diversity in the workforce and the human rights justification for ending age discrimination. The first approach weakens the latter by legitimising continued discrimination on the basis of age. This is especially important because there is a close relationship between age discrimination and discrimination on the grounds of sex, race and disability.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to report on an analysis of direct age discrimination cases by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and the UK courts and employment tribunals over an 11-year period. The paper focusses upon age stereotyping towards older workers and analyses whether it is endorsed at the European level and/or national level. Design/methodology/approach This research has analysed a sample of 100 employment tribunal judgments concerning direct age discrimination together with 28 CJEU decisions on direct age discrimination. Findings This paper highlights that there are a number of cases in which age stereotyping has been endorsed at the CJEU level. By contrast, the UK courts and employment tribunals have adopted a more robust approach. Research limitations/implications The main limitation is that it only considers case law from the European Court and the influence on the UK case law, without analysing the eventual decisions of the other EU member states. Originality/value The paper contributes to the debate with regard to the approach of the CJEU and the UK courts and employment tribunals in tackling age stereotyping and is the first to examine the influence the CJEU decisions has had on the UK jurisprudence over the period studied.

Abstract:

Abstract: European employment discrimination law has made a major step forward recently: Council Directives 2000/43/EC and 2000/78/EC aim to prohibit the employer from discriminating because of race or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age and sexual orientation. Similar anti-discrimination provisions were enacted many years ago in the United States. In the light of the experience of the U.S. courts with these statutes, this article intends to explore possible consequences of the new Directive for the Member States’ employment law.

Abstract:

This article is Part II of a study on the effects of age discrimination in the workplace. In Part I, we considered the origins of the debate on age discrimination and looked at the demographic information that led to the passage of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) in 1967. In Part II, we raise an important question: Is age discrimination still a real problem? The article analyzes the Act through an application to two employment scenarios by looking at the scope of protection, amendments to the original law, the costs of age discrimination to employers, important exceptions to the ADEA, defenses to ADEA charges, procedures for filing an ADEA claim, and waiver provisions. In addition, the article looks carefully at procedural requirements for filing an ADEA claim, remedies available to an aggrieved party, and to questions relating to retaliation by an employer. Finally, the authors consider the question of employer liability for actions undertaken by employers and other parties which are found to be in violation of the law. In doing so, the authors provide answers to the questions raised in the scenarios described at the outset of the article.

Abstract:

Although only addressed by EU law from 2000, age discrimination has been the theme of quite a few cases before the Court of Justice, with a high proportion decided by the Grand Chamber recently. This is due to the conceptual and theoretical challenges that a prohibition to use age as differentiating factor poses. After all, age has been an important stratifier used to synchronize life courses through welfare State regimes in Europe. Partly due to these traditions, there are stereotypes associated with old age, and young age, that in turn lead to disadvantage in employment. For the same reason, age discrimination frequently intersects with discrimination on other grounds, such as sex, race or disability. EU legislation on age discrimination has sought to accommodate the traditional role of age in employment policy by allowing wider justifications than for other forms of discrimination. This leads to contradictions within the larger field of discrimination law, which may even threaten to dilute its efficiency. This article analyses how recent case law of the Court of Justice, and in particular its Grand Chamber, deals with the theoretical challenges posed by these conflicting demands on age discrimination and on discrimination law at large.

Abstract:

Ageism and age discrimination — stereotyping, prejudice, or discrimination against older adults — are evident in all manner of workplaces, including healthcare. Biases in the hiring and firing of older physicians are usually rooted in concerns about their performance and safety records. Relatively little data, however, is available related to the effect of age on the skills and performance of non-clinical physicians working in industry settings — for example, pharmaceutical and health insurance companies. Managers should be aware of bias “blind spots” in their hiring recommendations.

Abstract:

This article contains an analysis of international, national and labor legislation, respectively, in the field of discrimination on the grounds of age. Recommendations for improving legal regulation and application of practical innovations in this area are analyzed and introduced. Given these trends, the prevalence of discrimination in employment and not only on the basis of age, but also on many other factors, such as gender, social status or mental skills, which for many people this provision seems to some extent natural and correct, has allowed and has become a motivating factor in order to carefully study and pay attention to the factors that have increased the effectiveness of this fight against discrimination, the creation of a separate law enforcement act or regulation that will separately regulate discrimination in employment, as well as the development of certain thematic programs to form ideas and attitudes of people in the working team for different age groups, where additional attention will be paid to youth employment. The study also examines international experience in the attitude and methods of solving problems in the field of age discrimination, not only in the field of labor, but in general. The complexity and prevalence of the phenomenon has caused different views on the issue from both scientists and ours, so the paper defines the general concept of discrimination in the field of labor, assigned personal characteristics and separated by special characteristics from related legal categories, clarified methodological inequalities and imperfections that cause a cause-and-effect relationship with a negative indicator of combating this issue. A comparative research method on discrimination in employment on the basis of age, based on the experience of predecessors, namely the comparison of the then society in the modern technological society, where the problem of technological processes and new information resources is absent. In order to achieve a qualitative analysis of the issue, as the purpose of the work as a whole, special attention was paid to criticism and analysis of innovations in international standards of methodological prohibitions and rules to combat the above topic. The classification of types of non-discrimination in the field of labor, the analysis of the legal regulation of the mechanism of improvement of this problem, the special attention was paid to the detection and prevention of discriminatory manifestations in the field of labor in general.

Abstract:

AbstractIt is 20 years since the passage of the Americans With Disabilities Act, yet employment and economic inequities continue for people with disabilities. The purpose of this article is to inform and encourage disability management leading practices to contribute toward reducing these disparities. The approach is an examination of where in the employment process applicants and incumbent employees perceive employment disability discrimination, leading to the filing of charges against an employer. Employment disability discrimination claims filed by individuals over 15 years (1993–2007) with the United States (US) Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or state and local Fair Employment Practice Agencies are studied. The authors analyse employment discrimination charges by year, basis (i.e., protected class characteristics, such as disability, age, or race), issue (i.e., actions of the employer, such as discharge, hiring, or harassment), employer characteristics (i.e, size of business and industry sector), and joint filings under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act (gender, race/ethnicity, and religious discrimination) and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). Special attention is paid to where in the employment process people with specific impairments are perceiving discrimination. Implications of these research findings for the practice and administration of disability management and employer policies are discussed.

Abstract:

Anti-discrimination legislation and case law dealing with employment discrimination are among the most topical labour law issues in Europe. As a result, The International Journal for Comparative Labour Law and Industrial Relations has received so many manuscripts on questions related to employment discrimination that we have decided to dedicate a complete issue to this matter. One reason why employment discrimination is such a hot topic is the fact that in recent years extensive EC legislation proscribing employment discrimination has been passed: Directive 2000/43/EC prohibiting discrimination on grounds of race and ethnic origin, Directive 2000/78/EC banning discrimination on grounds of religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation, and finally Directive 2002/73/EC amending Directive 76/207/EEC barring sex discrimination in employment and occupation.

Abstract:

Transformation of the world population age structure happens at a fast pace and creates problems of increasing social expenditures. However, Industry 4.0 technologies create large-scale opportunities for extending the labor activity of the older population. In Russia, share of people over working age is 22%, and it will increase by another 15% in next 30 years. At the same time, older people are discriminated in the labor market. The article is devoted to the study of job and salary discrimination of elderly workers in the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania as a typical Russian region with tight labor market and a deteriorating demographic situation. Methods of statistical and graphical analysis, factual and sociological research were used. Conclusions have been drawn about the predominance of the model of preserving the employment of older workers in public administration, education, science and health care; the influence of the indexation rate of pensions for non-working pensioners on their informal employment; the preservation of wage disparities for older people employed in the regional economy. The internal gender and age discrimination that has developed in the field of remuneration of older age groups has been revealed: discrimination of women's labor in all age cohorts and types of employment; inter-cohort discrimination of older men's labor within one type of employment; discrimination of wage growth rates of employees of different types of employment. Measures to improve the efficiency of regulating the employment of older workers are proposed.

Abstract:

Every society wants to have an ethical community. Although, that every citizen wants to be treated as equal, studies show that discrimination and gender inequality in employment relationships are present in every society, at any time. Discrimination is: treating a person or particular group of people differently, especially in a worse way from the way in which you treat other people, because of their skin color, sex, sexuality, etc . Job discrimination is when institutional decisions, policies, or procedures are at least partially based on illegitimate forms of discrimination that benefit or harm certain groups of people. Developed societies have a lower rate of job discrimination than developing societies have. Although, it is unclear why in these societies with economic civilization and culture development, job discrimination still exists, when the right of employment is sanctioned and guaranteed by Labor Code and by specific laws. The most common forms of job discriminations are discriminations based on gender, race, ethnic origin, religion, age. New forms are based on disability, sexual orientation, genetics and lifestyle. Not all discrimination is intentional or conscious. Sometimes people favor some groups of people over others as a matter of personal preference, or unconsciously accept stereotypes. Whatever, job discrimination is intentional or it is conscious, it is always immoral. Job discriminations violates utilitarian, rights and justice principles of ethics. Our study is focused to see how much job discriminations is widespread in Albanian society. We will analyze forms of discriminations to have a clear view which are the most common job discriminations types in Albania. Also, we will figure out if employees who have been discriminated in the workplace, have reported this unethical behavior to their supervisor or at the relevant state bodies. At the end, we will see if there has been any punishment to those who use discrimination to the employees.

Abstract:

This study reports on the results of a content analysis of federal court cases examining employment discrimination litigation in private, federal, and state/local sector organizations. One objective was to determine whether there are differences in the types of employment discrimination claims (e.g. race, sex, age, and disability) across the different sectors. A second objective was to determine whether there are differences in the outcomes (whether the case outcome or ruling was for the plaintiff or the defendant) of the different types of employment discrimination cases across the different sectors. The results of this study indicate that there are substantial differences in both the types of discrimination charges and the outcomes of those discrimination charges across the different sectors. The implications of the most significant findings are discussed, and recommendations are offered to organizations interested in reducing the occurrence of employment discrimination and the costs associated with employment discrimination litigation.

Abstract:

An ageing population is a general demographic trend challenging economic sustainability in terms of employment and pensions as well as overall social cohesion in terms of intergenerational solidarity. The prohibition of discrimination on the grounds of age is potentially an important legal mechanism to promote active ageing. However, equal treatment may well turn out to be a less successful strategy than expected. After presenting recent developments in non-discrimination law more generally (section 2), this article turns to age discrimination in particular (section 3) and the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) case law on compulsory retirement in relation to the Hörnfeldt case. The 'double bind' in non-discrimination law, with on the one hand, individual interests relating to fundamental rights and, on the other, more collective interests in line with active ageing, but also age as a traditional social stratifier, has led to a situation in which also direct age discrimination is justifiable (Article 6.1, Equality Employment Directive) and compulsory retirement is widely accepted by the CJEU. This scope for justified age discrimination is mainly to the detriment of EU active ageing strategies. However, it is important to consider the implications of a ban on compulsory retirement. This article argues that setting aside these provisions may well undermine employment protection as we know it, and also general developments in terms of 'good quality' work. Finally, the economic crisis and rising youth unemployment have made active ageing policies increasingly difficult.

Abstract:

Abstract We examine lifetime experiences of employment discrimination as one pathway by which racism impacts Black older adults’ well-being. We use data from the Health and Retirement Study’s (HRS) leave behind questionnaire to characterize lifetime experiences of being unfairly fired, not hired, or not promoted among Black older adults (N=2,948) and test associations of employment discrimination with labor force status at age 62, job satisfaction among those working, and depressive symptoms. Employment discrimination was commonly reported by Black older adults, especially among men and those with any college education. Employment discrimination was not associated with employment status but was associated with job dissatisfaction (OR=2.00, p=0.001) and depressive symptoms (Beta=0.34, p< 0.001). Findings demonstrate the detrimental impact of employment discrimination on Black older adults’ work experiences and mental health, while highlighting the limitations of HRS’s discrimination items. This research points to racism in the workplace as an obstacle to healthy aging for Black adults in America.

Abstract:

The principle of non-discrimination on grounds of age has been declared an autonomous EU law principle by the European Court of Justice. This principle has been specified in a Directive, but its scope of application is currently limited to employment and occupational activities. The Directive protects both younger and older workers from being directly or indirectly discriminated due to their age. However, given the specificity of age as a factor of discrimination, the Directive allows the Member States to apply some derogations to this principle if, within the context of national law, they are objectively and reasonably justified by a legitimate aim. In the present contribution, we intend to analyse the Court’s application and interpretation of the principle of non-discrimination on grounds of age as established in the Directive and comment on some of the most relevant preliminary rulings. In many of these rulings, the Court was asked whether the Directive precludes national norms which establish a mandatory retirement age or foresee the termination of the employment contract when the worker reaches a certain age. The Court’s interpretation of the principle of non-discrimination on grounds of age, as established in the Directive, could contribute to easing some of the EU´s current economic, social and demographic challenges and to the improvement of European workers’ lives; however, the Court seems to accept Member States’ derogations to this principle too easily.

Abstract:

In what direction has the prohibition of age discrimination been heading since the European Court of Justice (ECJ) ruled in Rosenbladt that there are almost no limits to the discretion of Member States in adopting mandatory retirement rules? This article argues that the general labour market policy of Member States will probably continue to be exempt from strict judicial scrutiny when long-standing features of employment law that are shared by many States are concerned. However, in the case of rules for specific occupations or specific age-related entitlements, the margin of discretion left to the Member States is narrowed down considerably. This article argues that there is a need to bridge the gap between the different control standards. Especially since the entry into force of the European Union (EU) Charter of Fundamental Rights, the interest of some employees to continue in employment and to pursue their chosen occupation needs to be balanced more evenly against the labour market policy of Member States. A suggestion about how to reconcile these interests is put forward.
