UK Prime Minister, Theresa May, has questioned a decision by the European Court of Justice (ECJ) which gives employers the right to ban staff from wearing ‘political, philosophical or religious’ symbols.
The European Court of Justice ruled that employers are not allowed to target specific religions but they are allowed to have a general policy forbidding the wearing of religious symbols such as crucifixes.
But when asked about the ruling during Prime Minister's Questions yesterday, Theresa May expressed reservations. She said: "It's the right of all women to choose how they dress and we don't intend to legislate on this issue."
