Religion At Work: What Does The Law Say? With Shoosmiths Part I [Podcast]

Pearn Kandola
  • April 16, 2024

You can also listen on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Could your workplace policies be indirectly or directly discriminating against employees of faith?

There have been an increasing number of court cases relating to religious and philosophical belief in the workplace in recent years.

In the first two episodes of our new podcast series examining religion at work, Professor Binna Kandola OBE is joined by two employment experts from the law firm Shoosmiths, Simon Fennell and Amy Leech, a Partner and Senior Associate at the firm respectively.

In Part I, they examine:

  • The legislation around religious (and non-religious) belief as a protected characteristic in the workplace.
  • Recent examples from case law

To find out more about religious experiences in the workplace, download our groundbreaking Religion At Work (2023) report or contact us for advice on how to ensure your policies and procedures are fair to all employees.

Enjoyed this episode? Look out for Part II, where Binna, Simon and Amy look at the effectiveness of current organisational policies and offer up advice for organisations to prevent and deal with religious discrimination in the workplace.

 

Stay ahead of the game.
