You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. In some countries, it is illegal for companies to reject job applicants for their age. Is this a positive or negative development?

It is considered unlawful in some nations for employers to deny job seekers employment simply because of their

age

.

However

,  from my point of view, it is a step in the wrong direction as we shall see. First and foremost, some jobs are known to require physical strength

as well as

emotional wellness which is already lacking in elderly people

due to

degenerative processes.

For instance

,  lifting bricks to the building site would rather be done better by a youth who is still full of strength.

Additionally

,  there is the perception of disrespect by elderly persons. The employers find it difficult to give them instructions looking at their

age

, 

thus

making them not useful in the organisation compared to their young counterparts.

Furthermore

, employment should be done in a professional way taking into cognisance the national law regarding it.

For example

,  in Nigeria,  the stipulated

age

for retirement is sixty-five years and as

such

, no firm is expected to recruit anyone above that

age
