Federal law under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 makes it illegal for an employer of 15 or more employees to discriminate against applicants or employees on the basis of religion.
Even more important, covered employers must provide reasonable accommodation for an employee’s religious beliefs or practices.
Harassment in the workplace based on an employee’s religious beliefs is also prohibited.
