The boss pointed to the company policy of clean well groomed hair when we were in the office and said my hair wasn't gonna fly

tell your boss that company policy cannot contradict the bill of rights

that religious freedom is guaranteed by constitutional ammendment and every case thats gone to court has been won

so ask him if hes prepared to argue his case before the supreme court since its a matter of constitutional law

plus in a company policy ambiguity benifits the employee 'clean well groomed" is not explicitely defined your hair is clean

well groomed is meanningless  up to interpretation so by law cannot be enforced

plus company policy has to0 take into consideration rfeligios freedom and cultural sensativity

give me your boss's number and i will explain the law to him

 

in a court of law that comany policy wont fly

A hair net WOULD be req uired if i was working food right? I think that is the loosest I can get them while still TYING as they said. http://www.eeoc.gov/eeoc/publications/qa_religious_garb_grooming.cfm

religious accommodation would u say this has been granted w/ them allowing to tye them up or am I allowed to press the fact that i need my dreads loose? I still wanna know your opinioun on what would be best if I can't manage to tye em up with just the dreads...
