Evaluate the Impact of Employee Discrimination on Society
Employee Driscrimination and Public Policy
As your research uncovered last week, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) was passed in 1967 and prohibits employment discrimination against anyone 40 years or older.
Some of the potential consequences of age discrimination in the workplace include loss of experience and potential, harmful effects on the environment and employee morale, and expensive legal litigation.
Be sure to review this week’s resources carefully. You are expected to apply the information from these resources when you prepare your assignments.

Feedback from professor :
Excellent short answer, but we usually qualify in the law – ie Lt. Jones may have a case of age discrimination based upon what appears may be some discrepancies in the scoring process but more investigation will need to be done before we can be sure.
In the statement of facts – you are discussing what he must prove. The facts are just the facts – you are setting up the scenario for your argument.
Analysis of merits and argument are the same thing – you should just have one argument section. But here you are writing a memo for the client to advise them of their possible legal liability so you want to be objective not argumentative. You want to lay out what the law is for the client and then discuss how the facts of this case fit in with the existing case law.
In legal analysis we look for cases with the same/similar facts and how the court decided that case, then we look at the facts in our case to predict how a court might rule in our case. This is what we present to the client. And legal analysis without case law isn’t persuasive, we use secondary resources only when we can’t find primary and there is plenty of age discrimination cases where the winning candidate won because of subjective scoring where the objective scoring was tilted the other way.
