Religion

You cannot deny employment or employment benefits to any employee because of their religious creed or lack of one. “Religious creed” is broadly defined to include all aspects of religious belief, observance and practice, including religious dress and grooming practices.¹

Applicants, employees, unpaid interns, and individuals in apprenticeship programs or any other program to provide unpaid work experience are protected from religious discrimination and must be reasonably accommodated.² For more information, see “Reasonable Accommodation and Religion” on this page.
