age equality
No ageism allowed
Age equality is the principle that people should not face discrimination or differential treatment based on their age.
The concept applies to employment, healthcare, and social services, where older and younger adults may face barriers: Age equality laws protect workers over forty from being passed over for promotions.
Unlike other equality movements, age equality addresses bias at both ends of the spectrum—ageism against the elderly and dismissal of the young.
