Can I be forced to retire from my job when I reach a certain age?
Q. Can I be forced to retire from my job when I reach a certain age?
A. Not if you are at least forty years old and work for either: a private employer
with twenty or more employees, or the federal government or any local government.
If you meet these criteria, you are protected by the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act cannot be (ADEA) and cannot be forced to retire. The U. S. Supreme
Court has held that the ADEA cannot be applied to state governments. However most
states have statutes that provide similar protections.
