Mark Chumley

In Groff v. DeJoy, decided today (June 29, 2023), the U.S. Supreme Court clarified the standard for employers to determine what constitutes an undue burden that would permit an employer to reject an employee’s request for a religious accommodation.  In doing so, the Court reconsidered the long standing de minimis standard and discussed the impact of the burden of an accommodation on an employee's co-workers.

Listen in and find out how the Supreme Court ruled on these issues.
