It is very true and rational that middle-aged people who lose their jobs may be discriminated against when trying to find a new job, which is not only illegal, but also based on misguided assumptions. All of the following statements are true about middle-aged workers;

1. They miss fewer work days than younger workers.

2. Middle-aged workers lack sufficient technology.

However, it is false to say that they hold their jobs longer and are more reliable than young workers because with an increase in age, comes health related issues, fatigue and they would require more breaks, leave or off time to get enough rest.
