The Civil Rights Act protects you against discrimination based on your religious beliefs and practices. First, you would need to file a claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. You should also dual file the claim with the Florida Human Relations Commission.

Further, some things you might want to consider are:

1. Did you know that you would be required to work on Sundays when you took the job?

2. Have you explained to your employer that working on Sundays is contrary to your religious beliefs?

I hope this helps. Good luck.
