Backlash on Decision: Employee's Wearing of Cross

(AgapePress) - British Airways (BA) recently announced that it would again review its dress code policy after initially ruling that one of its employees could not wear a cross to work because it violated the dress code.


Back in October, Nadia Eweida, a check-in worker, was told that she would have to either remove her cross or hide it beneath a scarf. Eweida, a Coptic Christian, refused and was ultimately sent home. She was also placed on unpaid leave.

From my perspective...put it under the shirt. Who cares what is visible? What is underneath/inside is what counts...
