Understanding Religious Discrimination

Religious discrimination occurs when an employer treats an employee or job applicant unfavorably because of their religious beliefs or practices. This type of discrimination can manifest in various ways, such as:

  • Refusing to hire or promote someone based on their religious affiliation
  • Subjecting an employee to a hostile work environment due to their religious practices
  • Denying reasonable accommodations for religious practices
  • Terminating or disciplining an employee based on their religious beliefs

These actions are not only unjust but also illegal under federal and state laws.
