What rights do you have if you don't want to retire?
This depends upon which state you are in and what job you hold. In general, it's illegal age discrimination for a company to force people under the age of 75 to retire. However, the courts have found that workers with certain jobs, like airline pilots, can be forced to retire at 65. Also, executives can be forced to retire at 65. The best bet is to contact the nearest EEOC office and see if you have a case for age discrimination.
Can asking an employee when she plans to retire be seen as age discrimination?
That depends. Feeling harassed or discriminated against due to age is subjective and varies by individual. The best an employer can due is ask the question under reasonable circumstances, which would be a defense against a discrimination complaint. If the employee is approaching what most people consider retirement age, or if the employee has worked for the number of years to qualify for full retirement benefits, then it would be reasonable for an employer to inquire about the employee's retirement plans because the employer will need to plan for replacing the retiring employee.
