Religious discrimination involves treating a person (applicant or employee) unfavorably because of their religious beliefs. The law requires employers to “reasonably accommodate religious beliefs or practices, unless doing so would cause more than a minimal burden on the operations of the employer’s business.” An individual who is interested in requesting a religious accommodation should submit the Request for Religious Accommodations form to provide information about the type of accommodation being requested and information about the belief, practice or observance.  For additional assistance, please contact the Equal Opportunity and Equity unit at equalopportunity@ncsu.edu or 919.513.0574.
