Prima Facie Case of Age Discrimination
To show that age discrimination has occurred, an employer must prove:
• He or she is 40 or older
• His or her job fulfillment was acceptable
• Employer’s action had affected his or her job negatively
• In a similar position, younger workers were treated better

Proffered Reason
If the employee proves that a prima facie case of age has occurred, the employer may give lawful evidence for non-discriminatory job action.

The pretext for Age Discrimination
Suppose the employee presents a reason for the employment agreement being discussed. In that case, the employee must prove that the employer’s offering evidence for the adverse employment action at issue is false. Intentional age discrimination was the main reason for an employment decision.

Similarly Situated Substantially Younger Employees
Similarly, a younger employee working for the same employer does not need to be under age 40 but must be in the protected age group. The employee working for the same employer must be much younger than the employee who claims age discrimination.
For example, a 70-year-old employee being replaced by a 50-year-old employee can allege age discrimination. But a 41-year-old employee replaced by a 39-year-old employee will have difficulty proving age discrimination, although the 39-year-old employee is not in the protected age group.

Before taking any action, seniors must consider four factors to prove age discrimination or denial in employment.
1. The senior is among the related age class
2. A younger employee is treated more favourably ( usually under 40)
3. His job performance was satisfactory, and he is also qualified enough for the offered job
4. Unfavourable job action was taken against him
In case of a complaint, the employers always have a pretext. However, the employee must prove that these are all pretexts to deny the discriminatory behaviour.

Proving employment discrimination is no easy task as evidence of discrimination is usually hard to come by. Still, there are a few ways you can make your claims in court and get your case in front of a jury. First, you have to verify that you were at least 40 years old at the time of the discrimination. Then, you must demonstrate that you’re otherwise fully qualified for the job. Next, you need to show that you experienced an unfavourable employment action like a demotion. Finally, you are required to prove that it was your age that affected your employer (or potential employer) to make the decision. If you believe you have experienced age discrimination in hiring, it’s best to contact an age discrimination lawyer for assistance.

Age discrimination in hiring is unlawful; however, proving it has been historically demanding. Thanks to new laws passed in 2019, it is immensely uncomplicated for those discriminated against to pursue compensation. If you think you were passed over for a job or discriminated against because of your age, an age discrimination lawyer can help. Some steps must be taken to demonstrate age discrimination in employing using the disparate treatment theory:
• You have to prove that you were at least 40 years old at the time of the discrimination.
• You need to prove that you are otherwise thoroughly eligible for the position.
• You should show that you underwent an adverse employment action such as a demotion.
• You will require proving that your age led your employer (or potential employer) to make their decision. To verify age discrimination based on the disparate impact theory, you merely need to show the actual practice that has a disparate impact on 40 year-olds or older.
