French Court of Cassation (Cour de Cassation française), Chambre Sociale, No. 16-10.459, 1 February 2017

Dismissal of the worker for refusing to take an oath before the Court according to the traditional formula because of its incompatibility with her religion. Discrimination based on religion.

Art. L. 1321-1 French Labour Code
Art. 9 ECHR

Since no employee can be fired because of his religious convictions, the refusal to take the oath before the judge for his religious convictions, proposing a solemn alternative declaration containing the same substantial requirements, cannot be considered a legitimate cause for dismissal.
