Christian Mailman Who Refused to Work Sundays Scores Supreme Court Win
A Christian postal worker who quit after he was given grief for refusing to work Sundays had his discrimination lawsuit reinstated by the US Supreme Court Thursday.
Gerald Groff, an evangelical Christian from Pennsylvania, sued the USPS in 2019, claiming that he was forced to leave his job after he received warnings and suspensions for refusing to work Sundays so he could observe the Sabbath.
Groff, 45, alleged the agency discriminated against him by failing to approve his religious accommodation to not be scheduled on Sundays.
The high court unanimously reinstated Groff’s case — which was thrown out by a lower court — finding that workplaces must give accommodations to religious workers unless the modifications cause “substantial increased costs” to the business.
The Supreme Court said that companies could no longer shirk religious accommodations on a reading of case law that they only prove minimal — “de minimis,” in legal parlance — negative effects to business. (Read more from “Christian Mailman Who Refused to Work Sundays Scores Supreme Court Win” HERE)
