I’m not saying it doesn’t happen - my grandfather had a stroke at 57 and was able to get his company’s pension but 3 years later they whacked his healthy co-workers who turned 60.

I disagree with it entirely - BUT - I could understand setting an age limit for something like flight attendants where safety is a concern.

I will never forget boarding a 747 flight from Houston to London shortly after 9/11. All the F/A’s were lined up in the boarding area and you never saw more grandmas in a workplace. Lovely ladies I am sure but their senior status was obvious. I suppose that is a plum work route and the most senior f/a’s took it.
