What is Religion and Creed harassment?

Verbal or physical conduct that is directed at an individual because of that  individual’s religion and/or creed, and that is sufficiently severe, pervasive, or persistent so as to have the purpose or effect of creating a hostile work or educational environment.  

Examples can include:  

  • Consistent offensive remarks about an individual’s religious beliefs and/or practices. 
  • Assigning an employee to a non-customer facing position due to an actual and/or perceived customer fear because of that employee’s religion and/or creed. 
  • Persistent comments about a person’s grooming and/or dress related to that person’s religion and/or creed.
