Muslim Woman sues Abercrombie

Unless they can prove they lost business because of her, it is against the law.

Where did that come from?

There is no legal basis for that concept.

Jesus.

I know, right? I thought I'd already quoted the law that said exactly that.

No, just the fact that you dont understand what youre talking about with regards to how this works.

I'll testify that I was about to make a large purchase at AF and saw a bish in some halloween costume and walked out.


wurd

It comes from the EEOC Laws, Guidelines and Regulations that I've already quoted. But here it is again:

Unless it would be an undue hardship on the employer's operation of its business, an employer must reasonably accommodate an employee's religious beliefs or practices. This applies not only to schedule changes or leave for religious observances, but also to such things as dress or grooming practices that an employee has for religious reasons. These might include, for example, wearing particular head coverings or other religious dress (such as a Jewish yarmulke or a Muslim headscarf), or wearing certain hairstyles or facial hair (such as Rastafarian dreadlocks or Sikh uncut hair and beard). It also includes an employee's observance of a religious prohibition against wearing certain garments (such as pants or miniskirts).

Really, the only way to prove an act created any hardship would be to prove that money was lost, no? Which, as I've said, considering this girl worked in the stock room, would be hard to do.

Just because you dont agree with or like what I'm saying, doesn't mean I don't understand.

I think the quoted rule is pretty damn clear.

Ok.


Except that its not that I dont agree - its that you dont understand some of the protections afforded to private companies.

You do know that, to all new employees, AF distributes a "Look Book" which details - specifically - what they can and cannot wear. A hijab is not one of them.

Explain how the government hasnt come in and shut down the entire organization, seeing as how they have been doing this for 10+ years.

wurd

Good bro to let Strongbow post from your account

Also, explain - if what theyre doing is so illegal - how the only dress code policy suit the company has lost was the one that required their employees to specifically purchase AF clothing.
