abstract = {This paper explores the treatment of the elderly in relation to the principle of non-discrimination on the grounds of age. Such discrimination, often a consequence of social stigma, places the elderly at a disadvantage, preventing their full participation, among other areas, in the labor market. I discuss how key steps to achieve an effective age equality strategy have been set down through anti-discrimination legislation and the clarifications of the judiciary, both at EU and Council of Europe levels. The author also emphasizes the need to reach a reasonable balance between turnover rates, even during periods of economic hardships with the promotion of effective remedies against differential treatment of the elderly based on their age.},
