Religious Discrimination in the Workplace

A former nursing home employee in Kentucky has filed a lawsuit claiming wrongful termination due to her Wiccan beliefs and her refusal to participate in Christian prayers at work. The employee alleges that following her declaration of faith, she faced discrimination and isolation from staff, which directly impacted her ability to perform her job. Despite raising concerns about unsafe working conditions, including toxic mold in the facility, her complaints were ignored. The lawsuit seeks to enforce anti-discrimination policies and requests $50,000 in damages, highlighting the need for protections against religious discrimination in the workplace.
