This article discusses the U.S. Supreme Court's unanimous decision of June 29, 2023 in Groff v. DeJoy, clarifying employers’ obligations to accommodate employees’ religious practices, and ending the long-established "de minimis" test. The Court provided clarifications regarding the meaning of “undue hardship” and held that Title VII requires an employer who denies a religious accommodation must show that the burden of granting an accommodation would result in “substantial increased costs in relation to the conduct of its particular business.”
