In-n-Out Sued for Religious Discrimination and Wrongful Termination by Christian
In-n-Out Sued for Religious Discrimination and Wrongful Termination by Christian

In-n-Out, a California burger joint famous for its burgers and commonly known to be a Christian company, is now being accused of discriminating against former employee Arianna Rodriguez for her Christian faith. This case is interesting because In-n-Out’s owner is very vocal about her Christian faith, and the company even prints Christian Bible verses on its cups, food wrappers, and fry boats. California employers should keep a close eye on this case because this is a case where a Christian company is being sued for allegedly discriminating against a fellow Christian.

Employers should take all requests for reasonable accommodation more seriously and err on the side of caution.
