I guess the correct answer is Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967.

Joni has been a secretary with her firm for nearly 30 years. She always receives excellent performance evaluations and eagerly learns new technology. Her boss has been urging her to get a facelift or retire, saying he wants a 'young feel' to the office.

The law that protects her from this treatment is Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967.

The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA) protects applicants and employees older than 40 year of age from discrimination in hiring, promotion, discharge, compensation, or terms, conditions or privileges of employment.
