The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 prohibits employers from discriminating in employment because of age. The act protects people 40 years old and older from retaliation and any adverse employment decisions based on age. Applicability Applicable to all agreements, including all sub recipients, which include state and local governments. At the very least, any award puts the University on notice it cannot discriminate on the basis of age. This act simply adds age to the list in the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Violation can result in loss of all federal funding.
Minimum Compliance Action File required assurances, if necessary, and abide by provisions of the act.
