Have you been passed over for promotion, suddenly let go or undervalued at work despite years of loyalty? You may be experiencing age discrimination, an illegal practice where employment decisions are based on age rather than merit. You aren’t alone. At Weisberg Cummings, P.C., our attorneys are here to listen, evaluate the merits of your case and fight for your livelihood.
Knowing your rights starts with understanding which laws apply to your employer. In Pennsylvania, two main statutes protect workers aged 40 and older:
An experienced attorney can help determine exactly which protections apply to your specific situation.
Know when it’s time to take action
If you suspect your age is being used against you, it’s time to seek legal counsel. Being laid off or fired while younger, less experienced employees are retained. If you were unjustly fired, you might have a wrongful termination case.
You should contact a lawyer if you experience any of the following scenarios:
Missed Hiring or Promotion
Consistently being passed over for training opportunities or promotions.
Ageist Comments or Jokes
Enduring ageist comments or jokes from management.
Performance Drop or Bias
Facing a sudden, unexplained drop in performance reviews after a younger manager takes over.
Reviewing more examples of age discrimination in the workplace can help you identify whether your rights have been violated.
Proving age discrimination is notoriously difficult. Employers rarely admit to it, often hiding behind excuses like “company restructuring” or fabricated “performance issues.” Trying to navigate HR or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) alone can add to the common emotional and financial challenges that age discrimination victims already face. A lawyer’s role is to gather crucial evidence, file the correct paperwork before strict legal deadlines expire and shield you from employer retaliation.
