  • Summary

  • As older people try to survive the challenges during the COVID 19 pandemic, Dr. Medeiros discussed a deadly side effect of the virus: a heightened incidence of ageist practices. This side effect has implications for older workers who already face the prospect of age discrimination by employers. Recent layoffs in America have often disproportionately impacted those older workers. Dr. Medeiros explains how older people are increasingly not valued and how many of them don’t want to claim their old age status. Freaking Out About Work is the podcast that examines the American workplace. Experts in the field will discuss trends, recent developments affecting workers and working, as well as the legal rights and responsibilities of employees, whether minimum wage, blue collar, white collar, or executive level employees and independent contractors.
