Ageism — Rampant in the Workplace and Under Recognized

<p>I am an &ldquo;older worker.&rdquo; The age that qualifies one as such seems to depend on the age of your colleagues. The younger they are, the more likely a person in their 40s can qualify for the definition of being an older worker.</p> <p>Me? Way beyond 40. I am 64. I work in a field that is tech heavy and data driven. I keep current and routinely kill my performance reviews. Though we all have weaknesses in our skillsets, I am rocking my job and am recognized as a key contributor when it comes to process improvement and better software design, from the users&rsquo; perspective.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@staples103/ageism-rampant-in-theworkplace-and-under-recognized-3b313386cafe"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
