In reply to the discussion: Are employers required to grant Muslim employees prayer breaks? [View all]christx30
(6,241 posts)we used to do two-man builds. A two man team would be responsible for building a minimum 20 computers per hour. One person would install the motherboard, power supply, and hard drive. The other person would install the optical and floppy drives.
We had a Muslim co-worker that would take his prayer breaks. No one wanted to work with him, that person would have to do both sides of the table during those breaks, and our numbers would suffer. No one else got those breaks. It was a privilege allowed for him. And it's no different than if someone had to use the rest room a bunch because of a medical reason. Sure, they have to allow it, but it sucks for the guy working with that person.
After a while we went to one man builds, and the tables and the process were redesigned so each of us could do 13 per hour.
