Default Re: Is there age discrimination in hiring seniors?

To be honest I can't see why there is an age cut-off, I don't think it is an attempt to save money by hiring younger less expensive teachers or related to health insurance costs or the like. Arbitrary limits are just a way of life here... It is a shame as with the fading japanese economy and the strong foreign dollar it is tougher and tougher to lure teachers to work in Japan.
