## Resource

A Dutch teen, poised to start her first job at Jumbo, was abruptly rejected—not for performance, but because she wore a headscarf. Despite a positive interview and an October start date, the supermarket demanded she remove it. The Netherlands Institute for Human Rights and Jumbo itself confirmed this is illegal discrimination, requiring employers to prove any such policy is essential and unavoidable. Personal discomfort or bias isn’t enough—this case underscores the tension between religious expression and workplace norms, even when the law is clear.
