The European Union’s top court has ruled that employers may forbid the wearing of visible symbols of religious or political belief, such as headscarves.

But the Luxembourg-based tribunal said in its ruling on Thursday that courts in the bloc’s 27 member states should weigh up whether the ban corresponded to a “genuine need” on the part of the employer. They must also consider the rights and interests of the employee, including by taking into account national legislation on freedom of religion, it said.

“A prohibition on wearing any visible form of expression of political, philosophical or religious beliefs in the workplace may be justified by the employer’s need to present a neutral image towards customers or to prevent social disputes,” the court said.

“However, that justification must correspond to a genuine need on the part of the employer and, in reconciling the rights and interests at issue, the national courts may take into account the specific context of their Member State and, in particular, more favourable national provisions on the protection of freedom of religion.”

Suspended from work​

The case was brought to court by two women in Germany who were suspended from their jobs after they started wearing hijab, a headscarf worn by many Muslim women who feel it is part of their religion.

Both Muslim women – a special need carer at a childcare centre in Hamburg run by a charitable association, and a cashier at the Mueller pharmacy chain – had not been wearing headscarves when they started in their jobs, but decided to do so years later after coming back from parental leave.

They were told by their respective employer that this was not allowed, and were at different points either suspended, told to come to work without it or put on a different job, court documents show.

The issue of the hijab has sparked controversy across Europe for years and underlined sharp divisions over integrating Muslims.

In a 2017 ruling, the European Union court in Luxembourg had already said that companies may ban staff from wearing headscarves and other visible religious symbols under certain conditions. At the time, this had sparked a huge backlash among faith groups.

More than five million Muslims live in Germany, making them the largest religious minority group there.

Headscarf bans for women at work have been a hotly contested issue in Germany for years, mostly with regard to aspiring teachers at state schools and trainee judges. This has not so far been a major theme in the campaign for this year’s legislative elections.

Elsewhere in Europe, courts have also had to look into where and how headscarves can sometimes be banned at work.

France’s top court upheld in 2014 the dismissal of a Muslim daycare worker for wearing a headscarf at a private creche that demanded strict neutrality from employees. France, home to Europe’s largest Muslim minority, prohibited the wearing of Islamic headscarves in state schools in 2004.

However, Austria’s constitutional court has ruled that a law there banning girls aged up to 10 from wearing headscarves in schools was discriminatory.

برلن: یورپین ملک جرمنی کی اعلیٰ عدالت نے کمپنیوں کو ملازمین کو اسکارف پہننے سے روکنے کا اختیار دیدیا ہے۔

غیر ملکی خبر رساں ادارے کے مطابق یورپی یونین کی اعلیٰ عدالت نے یورپین کمپنیز کو اس بات کا اختیار دیدیا ہے کہ اگر وہ چاہیں تو ملازمین کو اسکارف پہننے سے روک سکتے ہیں۔

عدالت نے اپنے فیصلے میں کہا کہ کمپنیز اپنے ملازمین کو کوئی بھی ایسی چیز پہننے سے روک سکتی ہیں جس سے سیاسی، فلسفی یا مذہبی قسم کا گمان ہو تاکہ کسٹمرز کے ذہن میں غیر جانبداری کا عنصر برقرار رہے اور کسی بھی طرح کے سماجی مسئلہ سے بچا جاسکے۔


عدالت نے کمپنیز کو اس بات کا بھی پابند کیا ہے کہ ان کی جانب سے پابندی حقیقی وجوہات کی بنا پر عائد کی جانی چاہیے تاہم کمپنیز کو ملازمین کے حقوق سمیت آزادی مذہب سے متعلق ملکی قانون کو بھی دیکھنا ہوگا۔

یورپی ملک جرمنی کی عدالت میں اسکارف پر پابندی سے متعلق کیس 2 مسلم خواتین کی جانب سے دائر کیا گیا تھا، ان دونوں خواتین کو اسکارف پہننے کی وجہ سے ملازمت سے ہاتھ دھونا پڑا تھا۔

واضح رہے کہ 2017 میں یورپی کورٹ آف جسٹس(ای سی جے) نے اپنے ایک فیصلے میں نجی کمپنیوں اور اداروں کو یہ اختیار دیا تھا کہ اگر وہ چاہیں تو مسلمان ملازم خواتین کے حجاب پہننے پر پابندی عائد کر سکتے ہیں۔

اگر شریف کتے اور زرداری کتے کی بیکار اولادوں
کو یہ جاہل عوام
ووٹ نہ دیتے اور پھول نہ پھکتے تو آج ہمارے لوگ پردیس میں دھکے نہ کھاتے
اب انہیں کہو گے تو کبھی فوج کو الزام دیں گے کبھی عدلیہ کو اور کبھی امریکہ کو
لیکن کبھی اپنے گریبان میں نہیں دیکھیں گے

People are pointing out double standards and all those feminist who cry for equality do not stand for this either
It's a blanket ban on all religious symbols. It's fair. I know Muslims specially Desi older generation who migrated will be the first one to raise a stink if a Hindu came to work with full Tilak and three white stripes with a statue of ganesh on his desk.

Europe is very racist and anti islamic. They still have this crusader mindset.
Germany alone took more then 1 million refugees since 2015 including many from Punjab Pakistan.The problem is they want refugees to come leaving their religion and culture behind.

Court's decision explicitly says "under certain conditions". It means in most cases, hijab is allowed. It can only be banned in some jobs where neutrality is required by the employer. You dumb fcks!!!
homosexuality and dozens of genders are celebrated in the name of diversity but hijab should be removed to maintain neutrality. Hypocritical double standards of the west

People are pointing out double standards and all those feminist who cry for equality do not stand for this either

A mad dog screwing another mad dog in hole and spreading HIV is freedom but Hijab is a curse. ???

Same applies to Europe as well. They shouldn't criticise other countries. It's then our country and our rules too.
