CHARGES OF RELIGIOUS DISCRIMINATION ON THE JOB ARE ON THE RISE: CONTACT AN EMPLOYMENT LAWYER
Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, allegations of religious discrimination by employees against their employers have been increasing. According to a new report released by the EEOC, the definition of “religion” is broad and covers traditional, theistic concepts as well as non-theistic – but truthfully held – moral or ethical beliefs as to what is right and wrong. As a California employee, your employer is prohibited from discriminating against you because of your religion. Discriminatory behaviors can take place in recruiting, hiring, promoting, disciplining, scheduling, compensating, and firing.
In California, your employer must reasonably accommodate you for your sincerely held religious belief, practice, or observance that conflicts with a work requirement unless doing so creates an undue hardship on your employer. An experienced employment attorney can help you determine if your employer is taking care of your religious needs.
