EEOC V. Red Robin's Case Against Autonomy

In contrast to this case, there are cases where religion is favored over cooperation. In one example EEOC v. Red Robin, where Red Robin was against an employee with two tattoos of verses on his wrist. They told him that if he did not cover up his tattoos, he would not be able to serve. Red Robin argued in part that the employee had standards that the tattoos conflicted with the companies’ family image. The only evidence that Red Robin had against these tattoos was a statement saying that they “seek to represent a family-orientated and kid friendly image (Flake).” But since there was no evidence to point that the customers complained about the tattoos. In the end the employee was paid by Red Robins $150,000. More cases are building up over this
