Christians are not commanded to wear any jewellery in the Bible, so how could this woman claim her rights were being violated?
However if they turn round and say someone from another faith can wear an item of jewellery related to their faith, that would seem inconsistent.

well I wouldn't want a Christian looking after me in hospital. It might cast a spell on me or something, they are very mischievous creatures.

Seems the Daily Mail is having a good old moan about it as usual.

I do agree with this. It isn't as if she is working in an office dealing with paper. Surely she must be aware of the dangers of wearing jewellery in a hospital. Fair enough if her colleagues are also wearing jewellery, but then that is a whole other issue. I think some people just need to think about the difference between being discriminated against and being asked to abide by health and safety rules, which in a hospital are especially important.

Then I suppose you advocate ALL staff to remove rings, including engagement and wedding rings, wrist watches, ear rings, in fact ALL jewellery. (including body piercings)

I wear a cross every day and I would be very offended if someone told me to remove it!

People don't NEED to wear them at work! They can leave them in the car or in their bag - same applies to watches, earings etc. |

Well don't apply to be a nurse or any other profession where you are not allowed to wear them then! Safety comes first!

Personally - I have not come across any Muslim nurses - have no idea what the policy would be there if they are not allowed to show their arms. Any ideas? |
