INSIGHT: Most Britons behind Christian’s in workplace

Written by Admin 2 12 Jan 2011

A new poll commissioned by Christian Concern to coincide with the launch of its Not Ashamed campaign revealed, ‘most Britons think Christians should be able to follow their conscience in the workplace without facing disciplinary action from their employers.’ The organisation and its sister group, the Christian Legal Centre, have been involved in the legal defence of numerous Christians penalised by their employers. Out of more than 1,000 adults polled by ComRes, seventy-three per cent agreed that the right to wear Christian symbols such as a cross in their workplace should be protected by law. Eighty-seven per cent felt it was wrong for healthcare workers to be threatened with the sack for offering to pray with patients. The poll’s findings are an indication that the attitudes of some politicians and employers are out of step with the feelings of the majority of the population when it comes to public expressions of faith.
