Workplace requests for religious accommodation vary. Examples include a particular day off for a religious holiday, a work schedule that excludes a person’s Sabbath, to wear religious garb, or to have a place to pray. An employer is legally obligated to try to accommodate these practices.

Diversity Circles & Conversations on Cultural Change

Diversity Circles allow employees to achieve highest degree of participation. They also provide an alternative for organizations with staffing and operational demands that challenge traditional diversity training formats.  With the aid of skilled facilitators, groups discuss key diversity concepts and prejudice reduction.  Each participant creates a specific action plan that can be used in performance management.  Diversity Circles offer the highest degree of customization to organizations and teams that seek effective diversity training in the workplace because they infuse diversity leadership throughout the organization.
