Legal Question in Employment Law in California

The employer is entitled to set and change hours, duties, titles, compensation, benefits, leaves, vacations, holidays, policies, rules, etc. just not retroactively. They can pay each person a different amount. However, there can not be 'religious discrimination' as the basis for pay and benefit differential. The issue of religious holidays is a 'grey' area. Employees of various religions have now acquired legal 'rights' to be accommodated in their required religious traditions. Muslims with prayers, Jews and Christians with Holy Days, etc. MLK is NOT a religious holy day to which you are entitled to accommodation. But, if you can demonstrate that 'religious discrimination' is present, you may have a claim. If you think you can, and if you are serious about pursuing this, feel free to contact me.
