The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA) was put into practice as a way to prevent adults from being discriminated against in the workplace. Age discrimination includes being fired, not being hired, unequal or reduced pay, and/or segregation based on a person's age. If an employer or potential employer performs any of these discriminatory acts, they are in violation of Section 623 of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967. The discrimination laws of the State of Washington also prohibit age discrimination, and in some cases are more favorable than federal laws.
