CWN Editor's Note: The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has announced that two employers have agreed to settlements in religious discrimination lawsuits filed by the agency.
Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta will pay $45,000 in damages to a former maintenance employee who was fired after he declined to be vaccinated against influenza because of his religious beliefs.
Triple Canopy, Inc., will pay nearly $111,000 to a former employee who was denied a religious accommodation to wear a beard and then suffered retaliation by being placed in what the agency described as “intolerable work conditions.”
