 A paralegal voluntarily resigns from her employment with a large law firm. After her resignation, she becomes a Seventh Day Adventist. She reapplies for employment with the law firm two years later. In the interview and on her application, she requires a “guarantee” that she would not be required to work during her Sabbath (from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday). The firm administrator advises that the firm could not give such a “guarantee,” but she promises to attempt to at least limit overtime requirements during that period. Would a court find that the paralegal’s requirement of a “guarantee” against working on her Sabbath created an undue hardship on the law firm? Would the court find that the employee was unwilling to assist in the accommodation?
