What is Religious Discrimination?

Religious discrimination occurs when an individual is treated unfairly or harassed in the workplace due to religious beliefs or practices. This form of discrimination can manifest in various ways, including:

  • Hiring and Firing: Discrimination during the hiring process or termination based on an individual's religious beliefs.
  • Harassment: Verbal or physical harassment, ridicule, or offensive comments about an individual's religion.
  • Workplace Policies: Unfair application of workplace policies that adversely affect employees based on religious practices.
  • Failure to Accommodate: Refusal to provide reasonable accommodations for an employee's religious practices, such as scheduling adjustments or dress code modifications.

What Laws Prohibit Religious Discrimination in California?

California has robust laws in place to protect individuals from religious discrimination. Key statutes include:

  • California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA): FEHA prohibits religious discrimination in employment practices and requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations for religious practices unless it causes undue hardship.
  • Title VII of the Civil Rights Act: This federal law prohibits religious discrimination in workplaces with 15 or more employees, making it illegal to discriminate against employees based on their religion.

What Proof Do I Need in a Religious Discrimination Case?

Proving religious discrimination requires gathering evidence to support your claim. While each case is unique, common types of evidence include:

  • Witness Statements: Colleague statements or testimonies from individuals who witnessed discriminatory behavior.
  • Documentation: Keeping records of incidents, such as emails, messages, or memos, demonstrating discriminatory actions.
  • Comparative Evidence: Highlighting differential treatment compared to colleagues of a different religious background in similar situations.
