Religious Workplace Discrimination

What is Religious Workplace Discrimination?

  • Complete Details

    Religious discrimination involves treating a person (an applicant or employee) unfavorably because of his or her religious beliefs. The law protects not only people who belong to traditional, organized religions, such as Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism, but also others who have sincerely held religious, ethical or moral beliefs.


    Religious discrimination can also involve treating someone differently because that person is married to (or associated with) an individual of a particular religion.

  • Am I being reasonably accomodated?

    The law requires an employer or other covered entity to reasonably accommodate an employee's religious beliefs or practices, unless doing so would cause more than a minimal burden on the operations of the employer's business. This means an employer may be required to make reasonable adjustments to the work environment that will allow an employee to practice his or her religion.


    Examples of some common religious accommodations include flexible scheduling, voluntary shift substitutions or swaps, job reassignments, and modifications to workplace policies or practices.

  • What are some examples of religious harassment?

    Religious harassment involves unwelcome and religiously offensive conduct in the workplace. Religious harassment can include negative or offensive remarks or jokes about a person's religion or religious garments; religious slurs; or other verbal or physical conduct based on an individual's religion or religious beliefs.

  • What should I do if I need to request a workplace change because of my religion?

    You have a responsibility to let your employer know that you need a workplace change because of your religious beliefs. Your request does not need to be in writing, but you must provide your employer with enough information so that your employer knows you need some type of workplace change because of a sincerely-held religious belief.

  • Does my employer have to grant every request I make for a workplace change because of my religious beliefs?

    No. However, your employer must carefully consider each request and whether it would be possible. An employer might not have to grant your request if it would be costly, have a negative impact on efficiency, reduce workplace safety, or have a negative impact on the rights of other employees.

  • Is it illegal for someone to discriminate against or harass someone of his or her own religion?

    Yes. It is illegal for individuals to discriminate against or harass people of their own religion. For example, a Middle Eastern Muslim may not discriminate against a Black Muslim because of a religious, racial, or ethnic stereotype.
