Anti-elderly bias, also known as ageism, is a form of discrimination against people based on their age. It is often seen in the workplace, where older workers may be passed over for promotions or denied job opportunities due to their age. Ageism can also manifest itself in the form of negative stereotypes about the elderly, such as assuming they are unable to keep up with technology or that they are not capable of learning new skills. Ageism can have serious consequences for those affected by it, including feelings of isolation and depression.
