Companies have the right to set the dress code any way they like? Don't like it? Find another job.
Actually, no, apparently they don't. A female security officer in NJ recently won a discrimination judgement after she was fired for refusing not to remover her hijab. The employer had a strict uniform code.
Can these things pose a safety risk when in some jobs uniform requirements are for just that, yes. Does it matter to a court? No. The courts are seeing it as an infringement of religion.
So, if you are an employer, somthing to consider. Be careful and walk a fine line. Find a performance issue rather than a clothing issue to base any repremands or firings.

The key is reasonable accommodations. Disney offered her a position in the back but she refused. Disney satisfied that requirement of reasonable accommodation.
Sounds like some sensitivity training is in order here. From now on, Cinderella, Snow White, Tinker Bell and Minnie will all wear burquas. A minaret will be added to the castle, and all rides will stop each day at prayer time. Fantasyland will be renamed 'Land of Mohammed' where all young girls visiting will become betrothed to the village elders. It's a pedophile world, after all!
The Land of Tomorrow bookstore will be featuring an author signing his latest book - "Yeah, I AM a Muslim! So What?" by B. Obama.
If Obama were actually Muslim, that's exactly what the title should be.
Rules are rules and she knew them when she was hired.
Break the rules you accepted and see ya, fired!
Same goes for wearing a baseball cap in most workplaces, if it is in the rules not to be wearing something and you agreed to it when you were hired see ya.
Just fire her and go on to someone who wants to work and follow the rules.

And the park layout will need to be revised into a wide path in an absolute counter clockwise circle, with no toilets.

It's like the Muslim at Target that refused to check out a person that had bacon among her items. Fire him!! No, they didn't fire him. They moved him to another area of the store!
My son was going to eat at a particular restaurant and they wouldn't let him in because the bill of his hat didn't have a crease in it. LOL! Well, what did he do? Went to eat somewhere else and he didn't call his lawyer!

This is getting old and we need to put a stop to it.
Instead of people coming here and adjusting to our way of life they are now forcing their ways onto us and it is getting old quick.
If the person working refused to check out someone because they had pork then they needed to be fired and their record showing they are nothing but a trouble making idiot.
Funny how the left wingers hate religion but take the side of Muslims and their forcing their religion on us in our everyday life.
"As long as she's been there, she took off her hajib before she went to work because it's against Disney policy," said Leigh Shelton, a spokeswoman for Boudlal's union, Unite Here Local 11."But more recently she's gone through some experiences that have enlightened her a little, and she wanted to challenge the policy because it's illegal and wrong."
For the first two years she had no problem with Disney's policy but recently decided to challenge it? I wonder who whispered in her ear.
I wonder if Disney makes people take off cross (or star of David) necklaces that are visible. I cannot understand why wearing a hijab would be against the rules. It does not inhibit the hostess from doing her job.
Maybe if she sewed some nifty Mickey Mouse ears on the top of it then it would be ok. I don't think there is anything in the Koran prohibiting that so long as her bosom and head are covered.
