MESEGUER VELASCO, Silvia. Religious Practices in the Labour Context: The Strasbourg Case Law. Bol. Mex. Der. Comp. [online]. 2015, vol.48, n.144, pp.1035-1061. ISSN 2448-4873.

In regards to the legal decision Sessa c. Italia, the purpose of this work is to analyze the European Human Rights Court’s criteria in relation to the religious beliefs accommodation in the labor context and if this criteria is too restrictive towards religious minorities under the scope of a multicultural society. We shall also consider if there are any distinctive indications which may explain the evolution of the Strasbourg case law undertaken in regards to the necessary balance between the employees’ labor obligations and the religious festivities.
