I was just sent this story by someone who keeps abreast of the events in Bakersfield. You know who you are. It seems that a Christian pediatrician denied child service because parents are tattooed
In the Ethical Framework for the Workplace, this situation does fit into the:
A. “I’m self-employed, so I choose who I work for” category
which I fully support as well as the:
B. “I bring my religious beliefs with me to work,”
which I also support.
But the doctor did fail the qualification for A and B:
Qualification: “If I can’t do the job, I’ll refer to you to someone who can.”
Furthermore I was unaware the Bible said anything about tattoos and piercings. And I wonder if the doctor objects to crown of thorn armbands?
Where is Reverend Hank when I need him? And I did I mention the above event occurred in Bakersfield?
