On 30 June 2026 the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) released a new thematic factsheet on freedom of religion in the workplace. The document examines the issue within the framework of EU law and the European Convention on Human Rights. It clarifies common principles across legal systems and compiles relevant case law from the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). The factsheet covers cases involving religious dress and symbols at work, unequal treatment based on religious beliefs, and requests to adapt working arrangements for religious reasons. Other FRA factsheets address topics such as cross‑border child abduction, climate change, reasonable accommodation for people with disabilities, mass surveillance, the right to be forgotten, and the European Arrest Warrant.
