The court ruled in favor of a postal worker who wanted to take Sundays off.
The Supreme Court opened the door to more employees being granted accommodations for their religion at work Thursday, throwing out a ruling against a former postal worker who wanted to take off Sundays for religious reasons and raising the standard for when workplaces can refuse to accommodate workers’ religion.
While federal law requires accommodations for employees’ religions unless they would impose “undue hardship” on the employer, previous Supreme Court precedent has found employers shouldn’t be required to “bear more than a de minimus cost” to accommodate a worker’s religion—which Groff’s lawsuit challenged, arguing he should have been granted accommodations and the court should change its precedent.
