Do companies in your country have an age limit for employees?

For middle and lower management categories and skilled workers, it is preferred to have 18+ to 25 and in exceptional cases,35. For top management, they go up to 50 or 55.

In india , normal retirement age is 58 , so in my opinion company recruit person upto 50 or 55 too . but at lower position youngester are more and i means that they can do work in a cheaper rate that why company won't cosider above 40 years person . Its my opinion .

hello. i am from the philippines, too. yep. most companies does that. but now, there are call centers which accept even people up to 45 for as long as one can work even on graveyard shifts.

I my gosh, not that I konw of. You can't work until you are at least 16, but I have never heard of being too old. Reckon I don't get out much though.

There isn't an official age limit, but for most people, if they lose their job in their 40's and onwards, it's almost impossible for them to find a new job or at least an equivalent position. I'm not sure why this is, it certainly can't be because they're making room for young people, as the unemployment rate even among college graduates is very high, but shouldn't an older person be valued by their work experience at a certain function? Wouldn't it be easier to hire someone who already knows what they're doing than to train a newcomer?
