Religious discrimination at work is a significant problem, according to a new study by Pearn Kandola, a business psychology and DEI consultancy. The report, titled “Religion at Work,” surveyed the experiences of over 6,000 workers in the US and the UK, including individuals from Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim, and Sikh faiths. The study found that 47% of respondents did not feel comfortable discussing their religious festivals, and 64% of people who wore religious dress or symbols felt uncomfortable wearing them in the workplace. The report highlights the importance of improving inclusion and creating an open environment for people of different faiths.
