Wearing an Islamic headscarf in the workplace vs. rights and freedoms of other entities. Discussion regarding the EU Court of Justice’s rulings in the Samira Achbita vs. G4S Secure Solutions case (C-157/15) and the Asma Bougnaoui vs. Micropole case (

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to present an analysis of the EU Court of Justice’s rulings of March 17th 2017, in the Samira Achbita vs. G4S Secure Solutions case (C–157/15) and the Asma Bougnaoui vs. Micropole case (C–188/15), in the context of the exercise of the freedom of thought, conscience and religion in situations involving contact with other entities. The problem of wearing a headscarf is presented with reference to the client’s freedom of belief and the company’s policy of religious and ideological neutrality. The article provides a critical view of the ruling due to the court’s failing to take into account the specific character of the freedom to express one’s religious beliefs. Special attention was paid to the question of religion, as one of grounds of discrimination being prohibited by Directive 2000/78/EC, as well as to the expression of religious, ideological or philosophical beliefs, and the problem of proselytism in the workplace.
