An employer or it's workers may not dicriminate based on the religion of it's employees or applicants for employment. Employers may not treat employees or job applicants differently, either less or more favorably, because of their religious beliefs and practices.  They also may not discriminate based on a lack of a particular type of religious adherence. Additionally, employers must make some reasonable accomodations for an employees religious beliefs.

If you have been rejected for employment, fired, harassed or otherwise harmed in your employment and you suspect it is becasue of your religion, your religious beliefs and practices, and/or your employer did not comply with your reasonable requests for a convenient accommodation of your religious beliefs and practices, you may have suffered unlawful religious discrimination.

Employers must also take steps to prevent this type of harassment of their employees on the basis of religion. Employers may not create more stringent restrictions on religious expression than on other forms of personal expression that have a similar effect on workplace efficiency.  Please call or email to discuss the circumstances of your case with us.
