Religion in the Workplace

The law does not always follow common sense but let’s start with common sense, anyway. People ought to try to avoid being “in your face” with their religion. Apart from legal issues, it is just not effective. Common sense kinds of things, like posting a favorite Bible verse on the wall of one’s own office or cubicle is allowed both common sense-wise and legally.

Generally, employers are required by law to make "reasonable accommodations" to employees with religious needs, just as they are required to do for the disabled. Title VII of the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964, among other laws, offers broad protections to religious-minded people.

Extreme views about separation out of religion are just as bad as extreme views about turning workplaces into de-facto semi-churches. In a controversy, both sides need to chill.
