Title : Workplace Religious Accommodations Under the New “Substantial Increased Costs” Standard

The U.S. Supreme Court issued its long-awaited decision in Groff v. DeJoy, Dkt. 22-174 (2023), rejecting the longstanding interpretation of the “undue hardship” standard as too lenient in allowing employers to deny workplace accommodations. Specifically, before Groff, the “undue hardship” standard did not require employers to bear more than a “de minimis cost” in providing religious accommodations.

Grant Collins talks about how the Court’s decision will impact SMACNA contractors, including day-off requests, religious clothing in the workplace, and break times for prayer.   View the presentation sides.
