Muslims working for an Ariens manufacturing plant in Wisconsin have been told that they are no longer allowed to pray unless during the specified break time. However, this policy, which had been in place but unenforced for 25 years at the plant, there is a concern among Muslim employees that breaking to pray might result in being fired.
Any accusations of foul play or unfair treatment of Muslim employees would be void, as the company’s policy falls under the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s guidelines on fair treatment. This has not stopped Masjid Imam Hasan Abdi of Green Bay from admonishing the plant’s policy, as he voiced concern over what Muslim employees are expected to do if their break time doesn’t coincide with their designated prayer times.
Dan Ariens, CEO and chairman of the company, said the policy is being enforced in response to an unacceptable dip in policy. He also explained that non-Muslim members of the production teams felt uncomfortable about the breaks, as they didn’t feel it was fair to the rest of them.

Well, there are 2 choices, allow “religions” to dictate jobs/economy or “no” religion at all.
So you want to shut down a business so you can go pray. I suggest you pray during your break and at lunch.
That is not right ! It’s not fair to the employer or the other workers ! Why should that employer disrupt the whole operation of his plant to suit them !! This is still AMERICA no matter what Omuslim says ! Fire them and get Americans in there ! Show them that they don’t rule this country !
fire their asses
Oh well boo hoo
Who gives a $hit???
Pray silent, Christians can do it, our God hears us.
Pray on your own time. We work here in the US. You are not going to change this!
