Anyway...the new policy makes so much more sense. Move someone to a different department if they dont like handling items in their current one. Win win. Doesn't put customers out unnecessarily, and the staff member isnt made to feel uncomfortable.

If people don't want to handle meat or whatever why not move them to another part of the store?
like if somebody is against handing bacon then move them to the clothes department or the fruit and veg. It wouldn't be fair to force a customer to leave an item behind or go to another line after waiting already.

It is about convenience. It's one thing I respect about Islam; at least they (largely) follow scripture. Christian doctrine has been warped beyond recognition, validated by dubious "reinterpretations" of the written word, but all motivated by wanting their faith to fit around changing lifestyles and values. |

If you think the Bible can be applied directly to modern day life without being "interpreted" then.... we've reached an impasse.

M & S sorry Marks and Sparks how dare you refuse a sale 26.12.13
this is controversial, like prey being surrounded by sharks, "Marc Bolland" won't want this commercial, its not a pleasant advert for Marks and Sparks. so whats the out cry, why has the shop gone dim, because any unjust "no sale" is a bad deny, it really is giving bad press to the "Muslim". its now getting beyond a joke, job rolls are not being for-filled, so i am going to have a poke, M&S are employing those that are not fully skilled. where is it going to stop, maybe M&S should only sell "Hala Meat" approved, of-course i am having a clear pop, i strongly recommend this member of staff is removed. we can not change "job tittles", business can not be "cultural" dominated, the customer coming first is vital, and i hope this highlight shows "Marks and Spencer's" frustrate. ( i was reading this story on this website and i felt very sad for the customer that has gone into a shop with the good faith of purchasing a product which is on sale only to when finally get served be refused. common sence must prevail here or do you think every cashier should have the right to refuse a product if they feel it is not right ? a few examples of this could be - a person trying to purchase a few bottles of wine ? or someone daily that buys 20 cigs ? it could even stretch to naughty mags on the top shelf ? the question i want to no is - should the the cashier have the right to refuse any sale if they feel it is not appropriate or should they be forced to follow the shops code on making all sales ? i am going to try and get this to M&S if you wanted to read where i got the story from it can be found here http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-25488259 ) |

No, individual staff should not be allowed to refuse sales of certain items
But that story turned out to be a mistake made by one m&s store apparently (though personally I think they backtracked after the ridiculous policy came out) and they do the sensible thing instead. If staff dont like handling certain products, they are shifted to another department.
