Having worked in retail for over 14 years I can tell you what an absolute pain in the ass this kind of thing would be to implement, especially when it's busy. Honestly, if you're not prepared to sell alcohol for any reason, the most logical thing would surely be to just not till train that particular member of staff. Saving on inconvenience, embarrassment and if that tweet is anything to go by, abuse.

Strange decision. Its their shop and they can manage it as they want but this might set a precedent.

True. I hope there isnt a court battle like in that case but I think this might go a bit further too.

An independant shop v a massive chain with far more ramifications for the public, tbf I don't think many Muslims have an issue selling alcohol after all many of them own off licences and smaller shops, which makes this decision even more ridiculous

Managers/bosses are dumb af anyway. They probably put him on tills over someone who could sell everything just for the fact they could. My bosses repeatedly put people bad at certain jobs on that specific job just because they can.

What if he was a recovering alcoholic who still wanted to keep his job?

This is definitely pretty unnecessary since he's not actually coming into contact with alcohol itself (and really should get a job somewhere that doesn't sell alcohol if it's such an issue), but the guy who decided to take a picture and shame the cashier on social media is a prick of the highest order.

This stuff has been going on for ever. M&S and Tesco's allow staff to choose re-selling alcohol. Tesco's won't serve you alcohol at all if you have a minor with you.

The problem for these shop owners is, without good grounds, if workers are made to compromise their religious beliefs, they could risk a claim for discrimination. Exactly that has happened over Christians refusing to work on Sunday.

It doesn't just cover 'right to religious freedom' either. 'Equality and Human Rights Commission' advise that in exceptional cases, i.e a religion and a belief (that doesn't have to be religious) should always be considered by the employer.
