Describe the employer accommodations that are required to avoid unnecessary religious discrimination.

What will be an ideal response?


As in other forms of discrimination, employers are required to provide reasonable accommodation for requests that are based on employees’ sincerely held religious beliefs or practices, unless doing so would impose an undue hardship on their business operations. However, if the job description and specifications require employees to work specific days and hours of the day, or complete certain tasks that might violate some personal religious beliefs, and if an applicant accepts the job, then the employer does not need to accommodate employee requests not to work during those hours or days.
