Is IBM guilty of age discrimination? — Part one

from I, Cringely on (#18JAA)

agediscrimination-300x300.jpgIs IBM guilty of age discrimination in its recent huge layoff of U.S. workers? Frankly I don't know. But I know how to find out, and this is part one of that process. Part two will follow on Friday.

Here's what I need you to do. If you are a U.S. IBMer age 40 or older who is part of the current Resource Action you have the right under Section 201, Subsection H of the Older Worker Benefit Protection Act of 1990 (OWBPA) to request information from IBM on which employees were involved in the RA and their ages and which employees were not selected and their ages.

Quick like a bunny, ask your manager to give you this information which they are required by law to do.

Then, of course, please share this information anonymously with me. Once we have a sense of the scope and age distribution of this layoff I will publish part two.
