The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA) is a federal law that protects certain employees who are over 40 years of age from employment discrimination based on age. The ADEA applies to most employers with 20 or more employees. Certain states and cities also have laws that prohibit age discrimination.
