Willie Brown Show: Age Discrimination

About This Item

Willie Brown interviews Marshall Chasing, unemployed teacher, who feels his age is preventing him from finding employment with benefits. Chasings claims because the healthcare premiums are higher for older employees, employers are less likely to hire them or keep them on in times of downsizing and corporate restructuring. Other guests include Penny Clymer, Clymer Modeling and Talent Agency, and Larry Wilson, California Human Development Corporation. Topics discussed include discrimination based on age and health insurance premiums; specific industries in which age discrimination is more prevalent; programs funded to help individuals find work; how job seekers might readjust their expectations when looking for work.
