Groff v. DeJoy: US Supreme Court to Review “Undue Hardship” Test in Religious Accommodation Requests

The US Supreme Court is set to consider whether its own definition of “undue hardship” with respect to religious accommodation requests remains valid when it hears the oral argument in Groff v. DeJoy (“Groff”). When analyzing undue hardship, the Court will also consider whether an accommodation that burdens other employees can be said to burden the employer.
