Federal and state laws prohibit employers from discriminating against individuals based on religion and require that employers make accommodation of religious observances, beliefs, and practices unless such accommodation would result in an undue hardship on the employer. Brightline Compliance''s online course, Reasonable Accommodation of Religious Practices, teaches practical skills for identifying accommodation issues and handling them lawfully and effectively.

Course features include:
* Feedback on each scenario to emphasize important principles and provide learners with a framework for on-the-job decisions
* Easy customization to include your organization''s policies
* Take-away materials such as a Checklist of course instruction points
True-to-life interactive scenarios focus on common questions surrounding accommodating an employee's religious practices, beliefs or observances, such as:
* What are common types of religious accommodations?
* What is undue hardship?
* How do I balance the business needs of my organization with an individual's request for accommodation?
* Who in my organization should I contact when I receive a request for accommodation?
* What happens when a requested accommodation appears contradictory to organization policy?
* What if the requested accommodation would infringe on other employees' job rights or benefits?
* How should I respond to clients or customers who disregard an employee's right to an accommodation?
* What can we legally consider when choosing between multiple possible accommodations?
