If you put your religion over your job, then its your problem. Doesn't matter if Muslim, Jew or Christian.

@Luiz It's confusing, are all 200 of them praying/practising? Maybe the issue is the time frame, if only 3 go per time, not all of them would make it to pray on time? If they're in bigger group, they'd finish faster.

That's why in the beginning of article one is talking about 'missing the prayer'.

Also I don't get this

"Jaylani Hussein represents 150 workers who are now without a job.

"Now we are getting supervisors who are telling our clients to go home if they wanted to pray," Hussein said. "If they are denied their basic rights to practice their faith reasonably at their employment, they seem to be losing one of the basic fundamental rights."

 

This is contradicting the statement of that spokesperson.

if its 3 at a time it isnt enough time for everyone to get their prayers done

i'm thinking maybe the other workers might be getting annoyed at the muslims leaving their posts and throwing off the workflow

Yeah I was thinking the same.

I think they could all finish their prayers during the breaks, but when do they have breaks and how many/how long? Like @just4fun said, this seems to be issue with the supervisor(s) and generally how organized they are. Idk...

they were fired becuase they didn't go towork for THREE DAYS and ALL of them did it at the same time, I would have also been fired in my job, they deserve it,

Was the 200 staff not turning up a protest against not being allowed to pray at the same time? I would've fired them too.
