And that goes for workers in the real world as well.
Am I supposed to expect my 60 year old electrition to be as able as my 24 year old one. Would any 60 year old's like to try climbing a 40 foot vertical ladder to check a fan motor is ok, repairs faulty gantry cranes 45 feet from the ground above a melt furnace ( its a tad warm up there ) or work 5 feet from cast iron pouring at 1400 degrees centigrade?
So what shall I do fire him becasue he may not be as capable as he once was or look after him by giving him lighter type jobs as often as I can?
