    The age discrimination in employment was amended in 1986, the legislation was signed by President Ronald Reagan.

    The Amendment eliminates the age 70 cap on the group of workers protected by The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). The ADEA previously only protected workers between 40 and 70. With this new law, all workers over 40 were protected by ADEA.

    Due to the new legislation, all discrimination against employees aged 70 and over will be considered unlawful and punishable. The amendment also requires to provide health coverage for workers or their spouses aged over 70.
