Malik v. New Brunswick Human Rights Commission and Brunswick News Inc.

By Rudner Law, Employment / HR Law & Mediation | 2 Minutes Read July 5, 2012

Older workers and declining performance

When mandatory retirement was eliminated, I noted that this change might create some interesting HR issues for employers of older workers. In the past, employers were often in a position to tolerate declining performance, comfortable in the knowledge that the employment relationship had a fixed "end date." As a result, they could allow the employee to work out their last few years and retire with dignity.
