Why do older workers get labelled as poor performers?

It has gotten worse over time, with the one-trick pony PAP. They are at their wits end how to grow the economy beyond foreign investments.

The govt has confessed to being pro-business which means pro-employer, and by extension, anti-employee.

The heyday of US economy was when. Employee were treated best. And then Reagan came in. Both he and margaret thatcher destroyed the manufacturing base.

The worst aspect of ageism is the fact that the old are dying in far greater numbers than their younger counterparts.

This is very unfair. Death should be an equal opportunity event where everyone has the same chance of dying regardless of age.

Please share the types of discrimination that older employees often have to put up with.

They are labelled as "boomers" or "uncles". These labels are intended to discriminate - old, uneducated and uncouth.

I have friends and ex-colleagues aged 65 or even 68 still working in the public sector.
