DOL/OASAM RIN: 1291-AA21 Publication ID: Spring 2003 
Title: Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Age in Programs and Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance From the Department of Labor 
Abstract: The proposed regulatory action implements the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 (the Act). The Act prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in programs or activities receiving Federal financial assistance. The Age Act also contains specific exceptions that permit the use of certain age distinctions and factors other than age that meet the Age Act's requirements. This NPRM will be the third republication of an NPRM published on June 10, 2002, with updates to reflect the passage of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 and to add the term "program or activity" as it is defined in the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987. These changes do not alter the substance of the NPRM.
