The Age Discrimination in Employment Act prohibits discrimination against individuals over the age of 40 by employers with 20 or more workers, in terms, conditions, or privileges of employment. The Older Workers Benefit Protections Act also addresses age discrimination in employment, but specifically focuses on protections for older workers who might be impacted by reductions in force or other employment actions. The Rehabilitation Act prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in employment by federal employers, as well as private employers with government contracts. The Civil Rights Act prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, but does not specifically address age discrimination.
