But if you are close to retirement age there is always the risk that they won`t take you on. Things are slowly getting better but there is still a fair amount of discrimination against older people in this country. Another possibility is that they have had to leave work to become a carer.

I can see where you are coming from, but I think there are shades of grey in respect to conditions 2 and 4.
