Jehovah's witness loses case against the HSE for religious discrimination
As is illustrated in this case.
A few diiferent points are raised on both sides.
The Adjudicator felt that supporting someone to go to mass was not participating in it. Is difficult for me to agree with this. Supporting a person to do anything makes someone 'a participant'. Even if they are 'just doing their job'. Are still 'a participant'.
According to the article, a link is below. She lost her case inclusive of on grounds she was only requested to do something. She was not excluded from anything in employment or punished in any way. That her discrimination case was based on that someone just made a request to her.
Well that's all grand, so the HSE won, but assuming she is still in the job, it is unlikely this is where the story ends.
Is nothing to stop her taking another case if and when they do try to punish her in order to try and make her do what she very obviously does not want to. To accompany people to mass.
Am not saying she would win or that I agree with either side. It would be 'another fight' for another day. The Adjudicator then decides who wins.
