Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 63277, member: 636"] Apple faces a federal lawsuit alleging religious discrimination after terminating a longtime employee who requested accommodations for the Jewish Sabbath. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission claims the tech company fired the worker in January 2024 after he requested to avoid Friday and Saturday shifts for religious observance. Apple denied the accommodation request and began disciplining the 16-year employee for grooming violations after his conversion to Judaism in August 2023. The EEOC contends Apple violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by failing to provide reasonable religious accommodations and retaliating against the worker for opposing discrimination.
