CHRISTIAN WOMAN SUES EMPLOYER FOR DISCRIMINATION: CALL A LOS ANGELES LAWYER IF YOU HAVE BEEN DISCRIMINATED AGAINST

California and federal labor law prohibits the discrimination of an employee because of their religion. This means that your employer may not treat you more or less favorably because of your religious beliefs or practices – except to the extent a religious accommodation is warranted. In that case, your employer must reasonably accommodate your sincerely held religious practices unless doing so would impose an undue burden on him. A reasonable religious accommodation is an adjustment to your work environment that will allow you to practice your religion.

When a female employee was allegedly taunted at her place of work for being a Christian, creating a hostile work environment for the woman, she sued. In the lawsuit, she has asked for monetary compensation for the ‘humiliation, loss of self-esteem, and loss of civil rights’ she suffered as a result of the discrimination.

If you are a male or female CA employee who believes that you have been the victim of religious discrimination at your CA workplace, you too might be able to recover damages.
