Religious discrimination
Summary
Religious discrimination can be defined as the way of handling people differently because
of their religious beliefs and practices or their request for accommodations of their religious beliefs
and practices or their lack of religious beliefs or practices (Ghumman, et al., 2013).
Explanation
An employer need to reasonably accommodate a worker's religious beliefs or practices.
This applies not only to schedule changes, but also to such things as dress or grooming practices
that an employee has for religious reasons. These includes, for example, wearing particular head
coverings or other religious dress. But in this scenario Layla’s fellow coworkers are allowed to
wear their turbans and the hijab forcing her to make the decision to begin wearing her cross on the
outside of her uniform (Scheitle & Ecklund 2017).
Religious freedom comprises freedom of conscience and belief, right to exercise religious
beliefs, and freedom from discrimination on the basis of religious belief. In this scenario Layla’s
interests of wearing her cross outside her uniform is encroached whereas, her fellow workers are
allowed to practice their religious beliefs and practices by wearing turbans and the hijab, this
interferes with Layla’s freedom of religion.
Fair trial is an absolute right and a requirement of the rules and policies in the
organization. Fundamentally, fairness could have prevented Layla from being convicted of
crimes, thus, fairness protect life, liberty, property, reputation and other fundamental rights and
interests.
