ADDITIONALLY this years there was also made a decision where employers are allowed to not Accept u in their workplacement because of ur hijab
ALSO : employers can also decide to only ban " too noticeable " religious signs in their workplacment...
THE HOT REASON WHY HIJABIS FIND A JOB HARD : NEUTRALITY
Most of the Germans always say that the employees should have a “Neutrality” appearance, this is always brought up if u say “why can’t I wear my hijab at ur work”. No person has a neutral look we all different

Also instead of showing diversity in ur work, u support racists ! That means they r scared to lose customers, bc employers think the customers example won’t buy from their shop anymore BEACAUSE a hijabi works there
ALSO - they r putting hijab and the n4zi Symbole on a same page bc of That law ??! do U see the problems
“We have to give the civil servants the opportunity to make their various religious orientations clear, because this is also part of our diversity efforts in the public service."

IMPORTANT: ITS STILL NOT OFFICIAL
I’m tweeting the above tweet here again
A German law is then fixed when the federal president has signed it, he hasn't signed it yet, so we have to contact him at the moment, since he is the only one right now to change anything.
