DHL Age Discrimination.

DHL Brussels is presently facing Age Discrimination Litigation involving 4, B757 Captains, who were terminated due to the French Regulations which apparently since Nov. 23rd. 2006 have been rescinded.
It is gratifying to compliment DHL UK who have not invoked such unnecessary terminations.
A group of Lufthansa Pilots have brought, similar litigation against their Company. A ruling will be made in March next year.
Deutsche Post Chairman, Dr. Zumwinkel, has been officially qouted in the German media to vehemently oppose age discrimination in any form. The official website of Deutsche Post itemises in its Code of Ethics that age discrimination will not be tolerated in any way and specifically demands that all its associated companies apply the same ethical standards.
It appears Deutsche Post Executive Management may not be aware of the impending Litigation in Brussels.
