Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To succeed with an age-discrimination claim, Manny will have to show that he was qualified for his job, but was replaced by someone younger. The qualifications of his replacement, Lita, are not relevant to the claim. The level of qualifications needed for the job is also not relevant, unless it can be shown that the requirements were set at a level that unfairly screened out older workers. The ability of someone else to do Manny's job as well as he could is also not relevant to an age discrimination claim.
