I look at it as the person who makes the rules for the work place should be able to determine how they want their employees to dress. Do I think some religious symbols should be allowed and others not? Well not personally---my position is essentially that work and religion shouldn't mix, but in terms of policy I think that should be entirely left up to the owner. I should be clear that I don't think any employer should be allowed to discriminate against a person's religious beliefs when hiring, nor their gender or their sexual orientation---I just can't see how enforcing a dress code is remotely the same thing.
If religious wear is acceptable for one sect, so long as it doesn't interfere with the employee's duties, should it not be available to all?
