Rule, which is related to use of masks and respirators, is affecting members of the Sikh faith, says union
The union representing B.C. Ferries workers has filed a grievance against a rule that workers be clean-shaven, saying it’s affecting members of the Sikh faith.
“They are not being allowed to work because of a core tenet of their faith, which is to not be clean-shaven.” McNeely said he had a beard when he worked in the Arctic and was part of a team responding to fires. “I wore a mask. It was a non-issue. B.C. Ferries is a bit unique to me.”
