美国联邦法律规定，1972年5月16日以后雇用的空中交通管制专家（ATC）在56岁退休，前提是不良事件（如操作错误（OE））的风险随着年龄的增长而增加（美国众议院，1971年）。OE计数被建模为途中ATCS年龄和暴露的函数，以使用泊松回归来测试该前提。老年（56岁及以上）和年轻（55岁或以下）ATCS的OE参与几率相同。这些结果表明，管制员强制退休的理由可能需要通过持续的研究重新审查。
U.S. federal law requires that air traffic control specialists (ATCSs) hired after May 16, 1972 retire at age 56 on the premise that the risk of adverse events such as operational errors (OEs) increases with age (U.S. House of Representatives, 1971). OE count was modeled as a function of en route ATCS age and exposure to test that premise using Poisson regression. The odds of OE involvement for older (age 56 and older) and younger (age 55 or less) ATCSs were equal. These results suggest that the rationale for mandatory retirement of controllers might need to be reexamined through continued research.
