Piers has a point. My catholic-raised mom wore headscarves and turbans back in the 1970s. It was just the fashion. A piece of clothing like any other. We can wear a scarf around our neck, but not on our head? Yet we can wear a hat on our head? How ridiculous. How about the Muslim dress? Should a woman be forced to wear a Western suit to work? Maybe let's pick on her jewelry, too? Let's scrutinize every piece of her outfit to make sure it has no religious connotations?
The solution is really simple. She can pack her bags and find an equivalent job in a Muslim country, where she does not have to fight for her right to wear a Hijab at work place. Right now, Muslims have a very bad image around the world.
The difference is that the Islamic Iranian government is beating, jailing, poisoning and killing women for refusing to wear a hijab. ISIL (the Islamic state militia) forced their sex slaves to put on hijabs before they raped them. Those Yazidi women when they were rescued by American soldiers, the first thing they did was rip off their hijabs and trample on them. If Piers condemns Shamima Begum because of her association with ISIL and endorses her being stripped of British citizenship, he should also be consistent here. Hijab is a symbol of Islamic terror and fascism, it should be banned jsut like the swastika.
As an athiest who abhors all religion i still find this ridiculous, as long as it isnt interfering with work then whats the point 🤦♂️ people should wear what they want
Exactly. This whole "issue" just shows the amount of people who have a hair fetish and are just realizing it. I wonder if they care this much about people who choose to wear a hat?
@@JELAJAHSEMESTA-u2h I know the difference, but it’s still the same. But okay let’s change it up, what about a police officer that has his face completely full of tattoos? Wearing a pointy white hat? We’ve all seen those “freaks” on tv that do extremebody modifications. What about those? What about a woman who decides to dress up like a stripper working at a law firm? There are certain jobs and company’s that require neutrality. It’s simple, and it’s not singling out a certain religion. It’s the same with a cross, or the star of david, wearing a Sikh
In a country where u have every right to practice Ur religion and then people say to females stop wearing a headscarf is inflicting their rights of practicing religion.
They want us to allow men to use womens rest rooms and force us to use a fake gender but refuse to allow another to wear a head covering. Fucked up. Let her wear what she wants. It looks very nice and she looks respectful.
@cm-qt9ir who said it is illegal in Britain? There are many British Muslims. A country being not religious doesn't mean everyone inside it or every citizen should be an atheist. It is just a way to rule the country. Please understand what the meaning is and then talk wisely. Don't just go around attacking people without knowledge. This just spreads unjustifiable hate and demolishes peace.
@cm-qt9ir that's a false statement over here" Christians are always secular", I have seen Christian people wear the cross, tattoos of cross on their bodies, and even wear the black hijab-like clothing, and no one told them anything.

You can't go in the ARMY with whatever you want to wear, Some places require a dress code,You can't go in shorts as a stockbroker just like that when you're on WORK,it's not just about you especially if you're in a bigger firm, you carry the brand and that's the only thing you should do while working it's really simple but people these days are too scared of not being involved with Islamophobia that even COMMON SENSE vanishes completely what's ridiculous is your way of thinking, WEAR A CLOWN MASK WITH 3 turtlenecks when you're home but when you're at WORK keep your religion to yourself.
@@thokucheetah So basically you are allowed to be religious from 5 pm till 9 am next day and between 9 am and 5 pm you must be an atheist? You are ridiculous. Religion doesn't work like that.
@@thokucheetah Clearly you are trying to use silly examples to confuse the truth. Wearing a head scarf is Not THE SAME as wearing a bikini or a clown mask to work. A new law could easily come out that bans women from using makeup, or how about the law that existed back then that only prostitutes should wear lipstick as it is mandatory? Hijab, makeup, hair clips, accessories, and tattoos are not things that interfere with the dress code. Just admit that you don't like this religion or its people and you want to erase them. A dress code serves for something, like not wanting people to be distracted at work, or look professional. And I really don't think covering your hair changes that.
@@thokucheetah ahhh yes, be a corporate slave and put it above everything else including religion and your sense of belief. you realise how communistic and authoritarian this sounds right?
yup basically, it's ridiculous. they can give the "freedom of expression" to burn the holy Quran but not the freedom of expression to cover your hair, wow
As muslim, I wear the headscarf to show my identity and my submission to Allah god and set boundaries. However, this does not mean will interfere with what I am asked to do at work. Also, majority of hijabi muslim they would choose to not remove the scarf because we submit to god more than career, wealth and other things.
Peace be upon you, it is indeed about hijabis and correction of the misconception that hijab or modesty might interfere with work. In fact, if we do not do our job properly, if we cheat deceive or lie. It is considered one of the major sins. However if most of the hijabis were asked to remove their hijab. They will leave their jobs because as I said the core of Islam is the submission to the one who created and non submission of anything else. . To answer your question, it is about me and all hijabis and muslims all over the world😊 Please take care of yourself.
@@ezeee595 I guess they should work on their tolerance because I dont think a piece of Fabric and someone wearing modest and having power over their body to show just their face should annoy someone.
@@Hibaly- how do you know that? You are making a huge assumption about people’s level of comfort. I used to work with a girl who used to wear the hijab at work. Firstly, she was always on a war path with people whom she thought of as non believers. She also refused to make eye contact with her male colleagues. She made a lot of people feel uneasy around her. She was spoken to a few times about her professional behaviour at work and she refused to change her ways. It got to a point that nobody wanted her on their team. People can be understanding and compassionate up to a point.
If men can become women and women can become men, why can't a woman wear a headscarf? Teaching young children about LGBT in schools, plenty of people object, but nobody is banning it. Just getting triggered over a headscarf.
Why would someone with an unfavorable view on LGBTQ come to a place where it is accepted in the first place? Either you take it or leave it and go back to your own country. Islam and western will never mix.
@maekklyn dress code usually means a certain style of dressing. you can wear a hijab and also wear a suit. hijab is no different from a woman wearing a wig. its as absurd as a employer banning wigs from workplace
There’s no way anyone would look at another person who stopped important religious things just because someone in a higher position told them to and think that it’s okay what both parties are doing
As a Muslim, I must say that hijab is like my identity and it doesn't make me feel if it is taking my freedom away from me, Covering up my body is my choice which makes me feel more confident and secured It is never going to take away my rights of being the person I am today.
But this is the same like many Muslim and communist country's. Muslim country's lay down head covering laws, like Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, They say ALL women have to cover their hair; and none Muslim women have to abide by these laws. I am very sure that all of you Muslim women knows about these laws in these Muslim country's; and you would say yes these none Muslim women should respect the law. You don't have no problem with these Muslim country's laws for none Muslim women but when the opposite it now done to you, YOU ALL CRY "FREEDOM OF EXPRESION, FOR MY RELIGION" I think a lot of you Muslims are "HYPOCRITES" When have any of you Muslim women spoken out publicly for none Muslim rights in these Muslims country's?????

I really want to know if any of you Muslim women publicly speak out for none Muslim women's rights???? Cause i see that this is all HYPOCRISY. With that being said, i do not agree with laws that demand the removal of religious clothing unless it is for safety and security reasons.
@@Stekaren Exactly, you said the right words although I do find the way you put it in a bit aggressive. But you are completely right, wearing a hijab and covering up is part of being Muslim, and it is a must to do so.

By law an employer cannot discriminat they're employees in any capacity due to race, religion or cultural background. Therefore a company cannot force a female Muslim employee to remove their head scarves as it is seen as religious or cultural discrimination. This is covered in many unions, work place legislations and numerous other legal documents that make up rules that must be followed for all work places.
Not the same thing dude😆 a Headscarf is a piece of clothing and hence people wear it all the time, imagine if I told you to remove your pants because majority of the people are doing the same, that's ridiculous.@@cml007

@@thokucheetah it is really keeping it to themselves isn't it? They wear a headscarf cz of their religion it's upto them. They're not forcing you to do anything are they. But yeah, if a company doesn't want their employees wearing a headscarf and has a particular strict attire then so be it, but if it's just religious embellishments, then as Pierce says, what if it's a woman who's not Muslim but just wants to wear a headscarf.
what about the religious law of Islam which asks them to doscriminate against non muslims and non believers. ?? muslims just play victims and never take acountability
If a company is so concerned with a hijab, or a pagri, a burqa, or so on, then that is not a company you should want to work at as they put way too much emphasis on 'the right kind of appearance'. I run a business which consists of people from many ethnic backgrounds and preferences, and we all wear whatever as long as it is 'modest' (which basically means don't come in a bikine or shorts or a tank top etc). I focus on what my employees can provide for me, I don't give a damn about what they wear.
I think you miss the point. When a company employs someone like this lady, the remaining members of staff feel like they have to walk on egg shells when they are around her. This lady is also more likely to sue the company, if she feels her personal beliefs have been violated. Its the whole package the company does not want. I know this because I have experienced it first hand.
@@ezeee595that's a huge lie. You feeling like you have to walk on egg shells around such a person is your perception. Treat them like you would treat any other employee and it's fine.
@@lymaabdoul Nonsense. They ARE being treated like any other employee…and yet they want special concession to accommodate their personal belief. It’s clear you have no clue how a business is run. She will be the first to sue the company, in case somebody says the wrong thing to her that it’s in conflict with her ‘personal beliefs’.
@@lymaabdoul New company policies that allow wearing of hijab and burkas at work place. Allocating prayer rooms to Muslims in the office. Allowing Muslims to take time off for prayers during office hours. Selling halal meat in the canteen. Why does she think the world has to bend over backwards to accommodate her? How selfish and arrogant of her. She can pack her bags and go to Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan or Saudi Arabia and find an equivalent position in a company where hijab is allowed.
As an orthodox Jewish woman, I will be covering my hair after marriage with a wig, as it is customary to the specific sect of Judaism I belong to. Does it mean I wouldn’t be allowed to wear a wig if I admit doing it due to religious reasons? What if I claim it to be my personal style? 😁 This is honestly just ridiculous P.S. Please note that if you are a man who believes to be the opposite sex, then your „belief“ is very well protected and you can dress however you like, even in a very inappropriate manner in front of young children.
@@erikstone2321 Im curious, whats the logic behind this? Why does someone wearing a piece of clothing on their head offend you? Do you have the same reaction for people who choose to wear a hat?
It's about v i s i b l e religious symbols, so a wig would be acceptable to a company. Nobody would notice your wig. You keep your religion to yourself. That's what this company wants.
@bajas1000 Yeah, he was right, but I would've loved it if he didn't interrupt as much. But I guess he might have done that because she wasn't gonna allow someone to speak easily before the time of the interview finishes, and kept repeating her point.
that is such an excellent point piers made about women wanting to wear headscarves as a personal individual reason. I used to wear them and im not Muslim. I loved to wear them
isnt it crazy that the womans whos yellin and so insistant and impatient in her way of putting forth her opinion, is the one whos in no way shape or form affected by the ban, but the one WHO IS, the hijabi muslim girl, is absolutely polite and her demeanor is calm.
For me as a revert, who has not started wearing a hijab outside special occasions and mosque. Wearing a hijab is a form represantion and identiy as muslim person. Everytime I see muslim women out and about, I get a bit sad they don’t know I am also a muslim because I don’t look it. It is a cultural thing, not just relgious. To indentiyf as a muslim woman, as a part of the muslim community.
But according to Quran hijab is not a cultural thing sister! It is a command from Allah and Muslims do hijab to make Allah Happy I think you feel ashamed, that's the reason you don't wear it!
Hijab was idea from a man that didnt want other men to see his wife because of low self-confidence and jelaousy. And women were not allowed to say much back then so they still follow this idea to this day. You can argue with me that "god" wanted that but I trust my logic and not some book that was written by 50 year old men who married 6 year old child.
@@Janko.1 ok but that six year old girl was a Leader of muslims and Called the mother of believers If her father allowed her and she herself had no regret of marrying him then who are you??who allow u to question?? But still if you do, my answe will be this👉 that time it was normal for arabs! Enemies of the prophet did not say a word about his marraige then who are you?? If it was not normal back then then it was a good Excuse for prophet enemies! U are a loser man who just want to modern the world by saying that we don't believe in religion but in reality this cause alot of problems today e.g LGBTQ and unhumanity problems!
I hate this whole thing!!!! They've gone as far as legalizing every kind of thing. Now they're into stripping people of their religious outfits that promote Goodhood.
It's such a difficult subject. Companies are trying to reduce the chance of racial conflict within their workforce by applying a ' neutral' dress code, but in doing this, they're encroaching on their religious practices. Both sides have good grounds for arguement. So difficult.
As a Muslim, there's no right for anyone to tell Muslim woman to not wear scarfs as its a religious obligation. But if a company says they want their workers to not wear scarfs, they also have the right, so just find another company that allows it. It's not that hard, we control our own.
head scarfs have nothing to do with religion, muslim woman wear them because it's a tribal thing plus their husband force them to wear it. no where in the quran does it say they need to wear them.
I don't know why people are so obsessed with the hijab. It isn't harming anyone and if they allow gay people to do a 'pride walk' where they scream out their ideaology, why would they have a problem with women wanting to cover themselves with clothing whilst working?
@@indian69120 agree, they think its a base right of every muslim on a planet, given at birth , to move to any European country to live there and to spread their hi-tech religion and to be respected , lol
Rip to this wonderful young lady Hannah. sad to find out that she was going through all this pain. She looked so strong and under control. Check on your people no matter how calm they appear.
Her arguements about banning head covering makes no sense. She looks like a very clean cut respectable lady. But that same lady that wants to ban head covering would be the first to say a man can be a woman.
lmao yeah that's exacntly what i noticed too, her argument was nonexistent. she sounds like the type of person who would blindly follow the most ridiculous laws just because it's a law
You are implying to her something that she did not say. She does not want to ban had covering. She only say, what the ruling and the law said that if company ask you not to express your religions symbols at work that is not discrimination and they have a full right to ask you that. This is for protecting the neutral working environment. Otherwise, for example, Muslims could argue that forcing them to work on Friday is discriminating to them.
Well ok then ban religious clothing at work but where does it end? Clean and respectful. I as a customer care less what a person looks like or what they wear. Clean and respectful who cares unless pushing it on others. Aint my life and dont care what others wear.
@@shawnkelly695 Professional appearance and attitude should be neutral if you respect that people have different cultural, religious, political and economic backgrounds.

@@jiihuiu7664 no it's not. just be real. In Iran, women are lynched by mob and beaten by her own family to death for refusing to wear hijab. how generous muslims are.

@@miranda8598 That's your opinion. Thing is, everyone else have their own opinions. Best way to deal with rule that makes no sense is to remove the rule itself.
@Amin well if everyone's opinions will be taken into account then there will be no criminals in this world. There has to be an institution deciding the rules which are neutral for everyone. Muslims always have the problem of not caring about others religious feelings except their own.
@Idam Satriya well when they are in a minority they always scream about equal treatment and secularism. When they are in the majority, they demand Sharia law to be applied for everyone. And it is quite evident that in all Islamic countries, the minorities are rapidly fading away.
Bro headscarves for muslim woman, for muslim people, is sacred and is religious,by telling them to take of their headscarves you basically spitting on their identity, on their culture, on their religion bro..like how can anyone in their right mind think that is okay, like i legitimately do not understand People just need to respect each other man, like fr
@@DearBill But you certainly will feel offended if the company demands you to take off your clothes, your bra, your underwear, and expose your most private parts to all of your supervisors and colleagues, right? Oh, the company has the right to do so. They shouldn't care if you feel offended. That's how Muslims feel. Hijab is like clothes to them.
@@zhuangjoy2645 according your name , you are Chinese. China is a secular country. Taoism and Confucianism never been so extreme and any Chinese women is able to reject the patriarchy in these religions. I am not sure you are knowledged about Islam and what hijab meaning. Hijab is always presented like a "choice" when Muslim discusses with Western people. Actually not, it is a compulsory. Plus a Muslim pressure , community insists on hijabi girls , are more "valuable" than other unveiled girls. Hijab is not a common clothing like kimono , mini skirt , pant , crop top or bohemian dress.
@@zhuangjoy2645 in Arab countries, veiled women always supported Islamist party , the governments applied the sharia early 80’s and harshly during 90’s. Hijab never comes alone Hijab is not a choice , just an obligation imposed by Quran. Hijab is a pressure for the ones choose to not wear it. Hijab make society segregated between genders + religious minorities facing more oppressions. Without hijab , islamic system cannot exists. Sharia law works with hijab , with majority of women wears , except the Christian Coptics and rich women lives in urban areas. The veiled are affiliated with sharia , they belongs to islamists.
@@DearBill The reason it's an obligation? Because in Arab, Persian, and Turkic cultures, historically both Muslim and Christian women of considerable social status covered themselves for dignity. An unveiled woman was usually a slave, dancing maiden, or prostitute who uses her body to entertain people. Even in the 21st century, it's reasonable that many people would feel ashamed to see their daughters dressed like a prostitute or courtesan. Yes, I'm Chinese, and my Asian culture has many similarities with them. It's easier for us Asians to understand the mindsets of Muslims than you guys.
Well, in the UK most workplaces already have either a uniform or a dresscode. Neither of those I would ever wear by myself (I dislike formal clothing and I'm physically uncomfortable in them). So employers already have this power in my opinion - I can't wear my fashion in my office, so what?
Well you can't go in the ARMY with whatever you want to wear, Some places require a dress code,You can't go in shorts as a stockbroker just like that when you're on WORK,it's not just about you especially if you're in a bigger firm, you carry the brand and that's the only thing you should do while working it's really simple but people these days are too scared of not being involved with Islamophobia that even COMMON SENSE vanishes completely what's ridiculous is your way of thinking, WEAR A CLOWN MASK WITH 3 turtlenecks when you're home but when you're at WORK keep your religion to yourself.

@@Niphredyl Intelligence is the ability to adapt- Hawking said that, it's not about what you prefer it's simply work ethics and just like a firefighter can't go wearing doctors clothes and an undercover cop with his uniform, it's not about my opinion or yours
This is Hypocysi. If you observe countries with predominantly Muslim populations, such as Saudi Arabia, there are restrictions on openly practicing other religions. However, when people move to Western countries, they expect these nations to respect and accept their religious practices. I don't take either side, but I believe that if a company applies certain rules uniformly to all its employees, regardless of their religion, it shouldn't be considered discrimination.
It is confusing that Mr. Morgan started the jacket argue. At least conpanies always have clothing rules, or so many men are happy about wearing suits? Other companies have own uniforms, waiters white shirts or blouses and black trouseres. How short a skirt may be? Would anybody on that couch would not understand, that going to work at an insurance just in a Leopard tanga may not be seen as apropriate? And what does "it is more affecting Muslim women"... Haver their feelings more rights than of Hindus or Kippa wearing Jews?
i don't get why saira khan is even debating against this topic its literally comes down to morals and the amount of respect you have towards other religions
@ezeee595 Yeah....like your thinly veiled contempt for Muslims is showing. Hanna, the well-spoken young woman in hijab said, she would rather leave than remove her scarf. So slither away you serpent.
01:40 as a Muslim, if you are not wearing it for modesty, why are you wearing it at all?? I am muslim and all Muslim women if they decide to wear the headscarf it is because of the modesty!!!! not the culture!
First off, thats rarely the case lol and second, let the company assess and decide. It's their fucking business, they can pick and choose how to run it.
@@aquatick1848then I think that's the first step of failing in the business community. If you want your business to grow then inclusivity and employee satisfaction does matter. So many companies got cancelled for the same reason
I’m not Muslim, I’m Jewish but I’m so curious, how is her headscarf different than long hair down to that level? Her scarf doesn’t look any different than the hair of the female anchor. You can see her entire face.
If you show up at a football club and are clearly overweight and the club doctor says, well you need to lose weight before we can play you, would you say that is discrimination? Would you refuse to lose weight?
I'd say you can wear pretty much whatever you want as long as it doesn't "overlap" with the workplaces rules. Like wearing shorts when working in a lab or as a nurse or something or wearing a hijab when you are working in some sort of sterile environment where you have to put on those shower-cap thingies or a whole suit (although that one may be able to fit a hijab underneath, I honestly don't know). So bottom line is: As long as there is no valid reason as to why something should not be worn, let the employees have their right to wear what they want.
I understand your opinions but the thing about it overlapping however, us muslims cover up because it’s for Allah. Any women asked to take it off because it’s getting into the way of their work, if they know the Quran and the boundaries of Islam, would chose their religion and shouldn’t even be doing that job in the first place 😊
@DialogSL why can't you just not force someone to do something that interferes with their beliefs? If it is not hurting anyone and not affecting the job, then what is the matter? I say it is a matter of pride and nothing else if you want to impose your thoughts forcefully upon someone else for no logical reason.
@@DialogSL Do you know how to read? Because i never said no one is equal and i didn’t even say that they should change their rules to be lenient to religions. This video was mostly about muslims plus the guest is a muslim. I literally just said that muslims shouldn’t even be working at a job that doesn’t respect their clothing and beliefs. Read and understand my words better next time before saying some stupid stuff and putting words in my mouth.
@@DialogSL Also none of the other religions wear a hijab. Only muslims do and we do it for Allah. That is why I said “us” because that is something we do differently. It wasn’t used to say we are superior. 💀 Stupidity is overflowing on the internet
A NUN WEARING VEILS : fear of god and modesty A JEWISH WOMAN WAERING SHEITEL : they signal to their surroundings that they are married and that they comply with traditional notions of propriety. A MUSLIM WOMAN WEARING HIJAB : disgusting and forced WTF
Cultural thing? It’s completely “religious” commanded by Allah in the Quran for women to cover their beauty and protect their modesty in the presence of strange men
covering yourself with clothes is old fashioned and narrow minded wearing no clothes is freedom and being cool this the world we are living in going back to stone age when people covered their selves from leafs.
what if a jewish woman wears a wig for religious reasons? Will she be banned too? But another woman who wears the wig for cosmetic reasons is allowed to or what?
I could never really trust anyone, especially the more educated they are, when they have head coverings that must be worn because of religious reasons. Ok if you are out in the desert or it's cold and raining but really INSIDE, seriously!! It implies they are not able to question religious dogma, apply reason and logic .... in my view it diminishes their intelligence. It's a great ruling for companies and all that religious symbolism can be kept for the privacy of the home.
I’m an ex Muslim and I absolutely believe women should be able to cover themselves if they want. There’s a difference between preaching the religion and wearing a head scarf.
A person dressing is his personal matter ... Its ridiculous that they find it political... If the company *ruling company*, decide that women should work naked , would she do it ... Its not like its a school uniform or something, let them dress the way they want.
If i was hired as a waitress at a Vegas nightclub, they could very well tell me, "well if you wanna work here you need to dress in extremely provocative clothing" because that's the way they are supposed to dress. Of course, if i am unwilling to dress like that, i can simply choose not to work there! What i cannot do is accept the job and then insist on wearing an abaya (or whatever outfit i want) to work because "it is my right".

if all the people who are in favor of piers' asinine view really think it should be our choice and a company can't make it a rule then why not just abandon uniformity or the word uniform as a whole in any institution if you're an army officer and don't feel like wearing your uniform who is anyone to tell you otherwise? Why should children go to school in a uniform? why does a doctor have to wear a lab coat etc. It's really about discipline and it's time people stop putting RELIGION OVER COMMON SENSE.
People are not talking about Muslim women in army,.it is about woman in work force.if it was in army nobody would question it. And in school , I don't know what happens in your school but discipline doesn't require you to abandon your identity. In my school we pray so we are showing belief in God which breaks the thought about uniformity that everybody is same. If it is about uniformity who decides what uniformity to follow. Why not implement everybody having to wear headscarf.
Should any government make it a law for someone to come naked or completely clothed on commercial premises? Should any government ask your mom, sister, wife, daughter, or grandmother to wear something they like or dislike? Should any government ask any female to remove any cloth from her body that she herself chooses to wear?
i can understand if its a safety issue (like if u work in a kitchen or as like a firefighter or whatever) but if theres no legitimate reason for it then ... why
Religious beliefs are deeply personal and need to be kept that way. I don’t expect people to respect my beliefs and a privately run company is no different. The company is right to impose these policies.
She is wearing a scarf, not converting people to her religion actively, if people like you get offended by seeing a woman protecting their modesty (cause let's be honest, you westerners were brought up by Harlots for the majority of the cases) then you need to be more knowledgeable about other lives
Especially because some believes are diametrically opposed („dont talk to women, they should be at home and not be seen in society“ vs. „women and men are all equal“). Belief is something very personal and can be very very problematic. Keep them out of companies.
@@sayednaweed745 it’s really simple. If you don’t like a company’s policy, if you don’t approve of them, if they piss you off…..THEN JUST LEAVE…nobody is forcing you to stay there. If I”ve invested millions and millions and millions of my/ investors money into setting up and running a company, nobody is going to tell me how to run it. How would you like it, if somebody walks into your house and demands that you change the wall colours, because it’s not their favourite colour???
@@ezeee595 I agree, but it is not fair to compare a home with a company basically my point is a company can have large number of employees with different cultures and believes but this is not in case of a home hence no need to convince. For example ask a pope to perform prayer in Muslim mosque he will reject but ask him to pray in church he will do it without a force. Respect others choices if there choices does not have negative impact on other peoples and there choices does not have any thing to do with the business operation let's assume you have a son and he doesn't want to eat something you offered will you force him?. At last this is exploitation a person who has the choice to work somewhere else will not accept such rudeness think if for someone it is the only choice he must obey therefore companies has a advantage to exploit any one in any form.
A good friend of mine as well as my wife are Christian but they're also Japanese. Even though they're not Buddhist, they're uncomfortable if you leave your chopsticks sticking out of your food, especially rice. It's both religious and cultural. I think it's very similar to the headscarf deal. Also, as an American, I'm used to the reverence of freedom, which makes this a tricky issue to me. We have the freedom to practice religion (provided no one gets hurt) pretty much anywhere---it's one of our fundamental rights---but private companies should also have the right to implement a dress code to their employees. I work at a gym and we have to wear uniforms, though I don't think a headscarf would be an issue (though a full-on face covering would). That woman on the left sucks at discussion/debate, though. I totally agree with Piers on this one.
I don't think she sucked. Piers always interrupts the person he disagrees, so it becomes very difficult for them to get their message across. I think she handled herself well.
Piers has a point. My catholic-raised mom wore headscarves and turbans back in the 1970s. It was just the fashion. A piece of clothing like any other. We can wear a scarf around our neck, but not on our head? Yet we can wear a hat on our head? How ridiculous.
How about the Muslim dress? Should a woman be forced to wear a Western suit to work? Maybe let's pick on her jewelry, too? Let's scrutinize every piece of her outfit to make sure it has no religious connotations?
The solution is really simple. She can pack her bags and find an equivalent job in a Muslim country, where she does not have to fight for her right to wear a Hijab at work place.
Right now, Muslims have a very bad image around the world.
The difference is that the Islamic Iranian government is beating, jailing, poisoning and killing women for refusing to wear a hijab. ISIL (the Islamic state militia) forced their sex slaves to put on hijabs before they raped them. Those Yazidi women when they were rescued by American soldiers, the first thing they did was rip off their hijabs and trample on them. If Piers condemns Shamima Begum because of her association with ISIL and endorses her being stripped of British citizenship, he should also be consistent here. Hijab is a symbol of Islamic terror and fascism, it should be banned jsut like the swastika.
News flash bud white people can wear turbans to
It’s religion

In a country where u have every right to practice Ur religion and then people say to females stop wearing a headscarf is inflicting their rights of practicing religion.

@cm-qt9ir no it doesn't, because it's a personal thing and it doesn't hurt anybody
@cm-qt9ir who said it is illegal in Britain? There are many British Muslims. A country being not religious doesn't mean everyone inside it or every citizen should be an atheist. It is just a way to rule the country. Please understand what the meaning is and then talk wisely. Don't just go around attacking people without knowledge. This just spreads unjustifiable hate and demolishes peace.

Hijab, makeup, hair clips, accessories, and tattoos are not things that interfere with the dress code. Just admit that you don't like this religion or its people and you want to erase them.
A dress code serves for something, like not wanting people to be distracted at work, or look professional. And I really don't think covering your hair changes that.

Also, majority of hijabi muslim they would choose to not remove the scarf because we submit to god more than career, wealth and other things.
It’s not just about you though is it?
Peace be upon you,
it is indeed about hijabis and correction of the misconception that hijab or modesty might interfere with work. In fact, if we do not do our job properly, if we cheat deceive or lie. It is considered one of the major sins. However if most of the hijabis were asked to remove their hijab. They will leave their jobs because as I said the core of Islam is the submission to the one who created and non submission of anything else. .

I used to work with a girl who used to wear the hijab at work. Firstly, she was always on a war path with people whom she thought of as non believers. She also refused to make eye contact with her male colleagues. She made a lot of people feel uneasy around her.
She was spoken to a few times about her professional behaviour at work and she refused to change her ways. It got to a point that nobody wanted her on their team.

If men can become women and women can become men, why can't a woman wear a headscarf? Teaching young children about LGBT in schools, plenty of people object, but nobody is banning it. Just getting triggered over a headscarf.
Why would someone with an unfavorable view on LGBTQ come to a place where it is accepted in the first place? Either you take it or leave it and go back to your own country. Islam and western will never mix.
Double standards you see
@maekklyn dress code usually means a certain style of dressing. you can wear a hijab and also wear a suit. hijab is no different from a woman wearing a wig. its as absurd as a employer banning wigs from workplace
go wear it in syria . not here
Y can't I as a man wear one in Islam though? And y do women have to wear one in certain Muslim countries? That's the problem that it's sexist
There’s no way anyone would look at another person who stopped important religious things just because someone in a higher position told them to and think that it’s okay what both parties are doing
As a Muslim, I must say that hijab is like my identity and it doesn't make me feel if it is taking my freedom away from me, Covering up my body is my choice which makes me feel more confident and secured It is never going to take away my rights of being the person I am today.
But this is the same like many Muslim and communist country's. Muslim country's lay down head covering laws, like Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, They say ALL women have to cover their hair; and none Muslim women have to abide by these laws. I am very sure that all of you Muslim women knows about these laws in these Muslim country's; and you would say yes these none Muslim women should respect the law. You don't have no problem with these Muslim country's laws for none Muslim women but when the opposite it now done to you, YOU ALL CRY "FREEDOM OF EXPRESION, FOR MY RELIGION" I think a lot of you Muslims are "HYPOCRITES"
When have any of you Muslim women spoken out publicly for none Muslim rights in these Muslims country's????? YOU DEAR NOT as you know you will get a BIG black lash from your Muslim community and family. And I don't even think any of you care for none Muslim rights in Muslim's countries.

By law an employer cannot discriminat they're employees in any capacity due to race, religion or cultural background. Therefore a company cannot force a female Muslim employee to remove their head scarves as it is seen as religious or cultural discrimination. This is covered in many unions, work place legislations and numerous other legal documents that make up rules that must be followed for all work places.

what about the religious law of Islam which asks them to doscriminate against non muslims and non believers. ?? muslims just play victims and never take acountability
If a company is so concerned with a hijab, or a pagri, a burqa, or so on, then that is not a company you should want to work at as they put way too much emphasis on 'the right kind of appearance'. I run a business which consists of people from many ethnic backgrounds and preferences, and we all wear whatever as long as it is 'modest' (which basically means don't come in a bikine or shorts or a tank top etc). I focus on what my employees can provide for me, I don't give a damn about what they wear.
I think you miss the point. When a company employs someone like this lady, the remaining members of staff feel like they have to walk on egg shells when they are around her. This lady is also more likely to sue the company, if she feels her personal beliefs have been violated. Its the whole package the company does not want.

People just need to respect each other man, like fr
Criticize hijab is fair and legit.
Don’t care if people feels offended.
@@DearBill But you certainly will feel offended if the company demands you to take off your clothes, your bra, your underwear, and expose your most private parts to all of your supervisors and colleagues, right? Oh, the company has the right to do so. They shouldn't care if you feel offended.
That's how Muslims feel. Hijab is like clothes to them.
@@zhuangjoy2645
according your name , you are Chinese.
China is a secular country.
Taoism and Confucianism never been so extreme and any Chinese women is able to reject the patriarchy in these religions.
I am not sure you are knowledged about Islam and what hijab meaning.
Hijab is always presented like a "choice" when Muslim discusses with Western people.
Actually not, it is a compulsory.
Plus a Muslim pressure , community insists on hijabi girls , are more "valuable" than other unveiled girls.
Hijab is not a common clothing like kimono , mini skirt , pant , crop top or bohemian dress.
@@zhuangjoy2645
in Arab countries, veiled women always supported Islamist party , the governments applied the sharia early 80’s and harshly during 90’s.
Hijab never comes alone
Hijab is not a choice , just an obligation imposed by Quran.
Hijab is a pressure for the ones choose to not wear it.
Hijab make society segregated between genders + religious minorities facing more oppressions.
Without hijab , islamic system cannot exists. Sharia law works with hijab , with majority of women wears , except the Christian Coptics and rich women lives in urban areas.
The veiled are affiliated with sharia , they belongs to islamists.
@@DearBill The reason it's an obligation? Because in Arab, Persian, and Turkic cultures, historically both Muslim and Christian women of considerable social status covered themselves for dignity. An unveiled woman was usually a slave, dancing maiden, or prostitute who uses her body to entertain people. Even in the 21st century, it's reasonable that many people would feel ashamed to see their daughters dressed like a prostitute or courtesan.
Yes, I'm Chinese, and my Asian culture has many similarities with them. It's easier for us Asians to understand the mindsets of Muslims than you guys.
Well, in the UK most workplaces already have either a uniform or a dresscode. Neither of those I would ever wear by myself (I dislike formal clothing and I'm physically uncomfortable in them). So employers already have this power in my opinion - I can't wear my fashion in my office, so what?
Well you can't go in the ARMY with whatever you want to wear, Some places require a dress code,You can't go in shorts as a stockbroker just like that when you're on WORK,it's not just about you especially if you're in a bigger firm, you carry the brand and that's the only thing you should do while working it's really simple but people these days are too scared of not being involved with Islamophobia that even COMMON SENSE vanishes completely what's ridiculous is your way of thinking, WEAR A CLOWN MASK WITH 3 turtlenecks when you're home but when you're at WORK keep your religion to yourself.
Just to clarify further, I would prefer if anybody could wear whatever they want to work, I'm just making the point that this is quite the opposite in general, and especially in the UK.
@@Niphredyl Intelligence is the ability to adapt- Hawking said that, it's not about what you prefer it's simply work ethics and just like a firefighter can't go wearing doctors clothes and an undercover cop with his uniform, it's not about my opinion or yours
This is Hypocysi. If you observe countries with predominantly Muslim populations, such as Saudi Arabia, there are restrictions on openly practicing other religions. However, when people move to Western countries, they expect these nations to respect and accept their religious practices.
I don't take either side, but I believe that if a company applies certain rules uniformly to all its employees, regardless of their religion, it shouldn't be considered discrimination.
They leave their country and come to west to have a better life. But they always bring their religion and try to force it on other people
It is confusing that Mr. Morgan started the jacket argue. At least conpanies always have clothing rules, or so many men are happy about wearing suits?
Other companies have own uniforms, waiters white shirts or blouses and black trouseres. How short a skirt may be?
Would anybody on that couch would not understand, that going to work at an insurance just in a Leopard tanga may not be seen as apropriate?
And what does "it is more affecting Muslim women"... Haver their feelings more rights than of Hindus or Kippa wearing Jews?
i don't get why saira khan is even debating against this topic its literally comes down to morals and the amount of respect you have towards other religions
Yeah...like the way the hijabi girl respects the company rules. Right?
Exactly. Saira is a patronising gobby mare who just shouts. She has no business here
@ezeee595 Yeah....like your thinly veiled contempt for Muslims is showing. Hanna, the well-spoken young woman in hijab said, she would rather leave than remove her scarf. So slither away you serpent.
01:40 as a Muslim, if you are not wearing it for modesty, why are you wearing it at all?? I am muslim and all Muslim women if they decide to wear the headscarf it is because of the modesty!!!! not the culture!
What if the girl u rejected for wearing a scarf has better skills then anyone else 😅
Nah that won’t happen because she’s a crazy Islamic extremist
First off, thats rarely the case lol and second, let the company assess and decide. It's their fucking business, they can pick and choose how to run it.
@@aquatick1848then I think that's the first step of failing in the business community. If you want your business to grow then inclusivity and employee satisfaction does matter. So many companies got cancelled for the same reason
@@usamatariq1966 and so many companies have thrived for not allowing religious people into their firms.
@@aquatick1848 ah so youre saying that companies should be allowed to discriminate whoever they want?
These days, if you say you're English you'll get put in jail.
Piers clearly knows which community is more committed to saving the idea of being humans.
“It’s very personal if you’re the one wearing the scarf isn’t it”
I’m not Muslim, I’m Jewish but I’m so curious, how is her headscarf different than long hair down to that level? Her scarf doesn’t look any different than the hair of the female anchor. You can see her entire face.
It's just an attack on Muslim women
You're right at some point. I'm a Muslim and I also agree with you. Nowadays women are forgetting the meaning of a headscarf.
And what about the eyebrows?
is a hijab and is still the same there is something called burka there diffrennt hijabs
Piers you are good journalist.
Bcz Not one sided . and logical questions.
Exactly
you’re joking right ? 🤣🤣🤣
That woman was rude like woman if the company wants you bald will you?
the analogy would actually mean that you can't get a job there in the first place unless your bald
If the company decides they will only hire bald people, you should not work at the company unless you are willing to shave your head.
@@minervarose7664 100%.
If you show up at a football club and are clearly overweight and the club doctor says, well you need to lose weight before we can play you, would you say that is discrimination? Would you refuse to lose weight?
How can a piece of clothing affect a company??? ridiculous..... are they hearing what they r saying
Piers Morgan is genuinely such a respectable man
He definitely is
I'd say you can wear pretty much whatever you want as long as it doesn't "overlap" with the workplaces rules.
Like wearing shorts when working in a lab or as a nurse or something or wearing a hijab when you are working in some sort of sterile environment where you have to put on those shower-cap thingies or a whole suit (although that one may be able to fit a hijab underneath, I honestly don't know).
So bottom line is: As long as there is no valid reason as to why something should not be worn, let the employees have their right to wear what they want.
I understand your opinions but the thing about it overlapping however, us muslims cover up because it’s for Allah. Any women asked to take it off because it’s getting into the way of their work, if they know the Quran and the boundaries of Islam, would chose their religion and shouldn’t even be doing that job in the first place 😊
@DialogSL why can't you just not force someone to do something that interferes with their beliefs?
If it is not hurting anyone and not affecting the job, then what is the matter?
I say it is a matter of pride and nothing else if you want to impose your thoughts forcefully upon someone else for no logical reason.
@@DialogSL Do you know how to read? Because i never said no one is equal and i didn’t even say that they should change their rules to be lenient to religions. This video was mostly about muslims plus the guest is a muslim. I literally just said that muslims shouldn’t even be working at a job that doesn’t respect their clothing and beliefs. Read and understand my words better next time before saying some stupid stuff and putting words in my mouth.
@@DialogSL Also none of the other religions wear a hijab. Only muslims do and we do it for Allah. That is why I said “us” because that is something we do differently. It wasn’t used to say we are superior. 💀 Stupidity is overflowing on the internet
Employees also have the right to go and look for work in companies that allow them to wear religious attire.
Bindi is not a religious symbol
If you want a job in any company you must obey company policy. This is a ridiculous argument. Morgan is a piece of work.
Then let's allow companies to preach Nazism as well. It's their rule. Let's allow companies to ban Jewish people from observing Jewish holidays.
she is not honest the head scarv is to cover hair. in the real Christianity, women used to cover their head.
amen
She isn’t lying. For her it’s for the reason she gave
Yes, 500 ago they did.
@@CaptchaNeon If its to „express her culture“ then yes, this is to cover her hair - that`s her culture she wants to express.
@@liaw3166 Yes. I don’t know why people accuse others of lying when they don’t know what each persons reasons are.
how does the government ban a piece of cloth but enforce lgbtq into school curriculum starting from elementary??
A NUN WEARING VEILS : fear of god and modesty
A JEWISH WOMAN WAERING SHEITEL : they signal to their surroundings that they are married and that they comply with traditional notions of propriety.
A MUSLIM WOMAN WEARING HIJAB : disgusting and forced
WTF
Cultural thing? It’s completely “religious” commanded by Allah in the Quran for women to cover their beauty and protect their modesty in the presence of strange men
This is the uk not Islam
Religion is equal to NO LOGIC...
covering yourself with clothes is old fashioned and narrow minded wearing no clothes is freedom and being cool this the world we are living in going back to stone age when people covered their selves from leafs.
People think that being less dressed is civilized when it's actually the opposite
So by her words she does not wear the scarf because of religious modesty. Of course, she does it as a signal of privilege.
what if a jewish woman wears a wig for religious reasons? Will she be banned too? But another woman who wears the wig for cosmetic reasons is allowed to or what?
I could never really trust anyone, especially the more educated they are, when they have head coverings that must be worn because of religious reasons. Ok if you are out in the desert or it's cold and raining but really INSIDE, seriously!! It implies they are not able to question religious dogma, apply reason and logic .... in my view it diminishes their intelligence. It's a great ruling for companies and all that religious symbolism can be kept for the privacy of the home.
If you want to be a muslim woman in a job and wear that thing, go to a muslim country.
RIP Hanna Yusuf
What a great mind 😔
I swtiched the comments to newest and this really made me sad to see. She seems like such a sweet girl
And then they say “Human Rights”… If a man can now wear a dress why cannot Muslim women continue to wear a scarf to stay connected to their roots ?
Piers interrupts everyone but he cries when he is interrupted lmao.
I’m an ex Muslim and I absolutely believe women should be able to cover themselves if they want. There’s a difference between preaching the religion and wearing a head scarf.
RIP Hanna Yusuf, may Allah grant you Jannah. I'm proud you were confident in your religion
This is just hypocisy. In Saudi Arabia, they don't allow stewardess to wear burkha. Just follow the company rules.
A person dressing is his personal matter ... Its ridiculous that they find it political...
If the company *ruling company*, decide that women should work naked , would she do it ...
Its not like its a school uniform or something, let them dress the way they want.
Well it’s religious extremism! If there weren’t so many Islamic terrorists it never would have been an issue!
If i was hired as a waitress at a Vegas nightclub, they could very well tell me, "well if you wanna work here you need to dress in extremely provocative clothing" because that's the way they are supposed to dress. Of course, if i am unwilling to dress like that, i can simply choose not to work there! What i cannot do is accept the job and then insist on wearing an abaya (or whatever outfit i want) to work because "it is my right".
My point is if I run a company I make the rules. If you don't like it, don't join.
It is very easy for Morgan to be righteous.
Try standing at the other side with the company policy, that will be different story.
But this is the same like many Muslim and communist country's. Muslim country's lay down head covering laws, like Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, They say ALL women have to cover their hair; and none Muslim women have to abide by these laws. I am very sure that all of you Muslim women knows about these laws in these Muslim country's; and you would say yes these none Muslim women should respect the law. You don't have no problem with these Muslim country's laws for none Muslim women but when the opposite it now done to you, YOU ALL CRY "FREEDOM OF EXPRESION, FOR MY RELIGION" I think a lot of you Muslims are "HYPOCRITES"
When have any of you Muslim women spoken out publicly for none Muslim rights in these Muslims country's????? YOU DEAR NOT as you know you will get a BIG black lash from your Muslim community and family. And I don't even think any of you care for none Muslim rights in Muslim's countries.
I really want to know if any of you Muslim women publicly speak out for none Muslim women's rights????
Cause i see that this is all HYPOCRISY.
With that being said, i do not agree with laws that demand the removal of religious clothing unless it is for safety and security reasons.
Can people wear christian cross chains, earrings etc? Isn't that religious
Why is she acting like only her religion is affected by this
Coz it is..doh!
@rosekk9101 well, other religions or cultures could be affected too
@@chaphidoesstuff because only Muslims are targeted with these ridiculous rules. They would never force a Jewish woman to remove a headscarf.
Because only Muslim women wears headscarf’s for religion
she isn't! She clearly said it affects anyone but disproportionately affects muslims.
what I understand from this debate that it is between woman worship god and the orher worship money.
if all the people who are in favor of piers' asinine view really think it should be our choice and a company can't make it a rule then why not just abandon uniformity or the word uniform as a whole in any institution if you're an army officer and don't feel like wearing your uniform who is anyone to tell you otherwise? Why should children go to school in a uniform? why does a doctor have to wear a lab coat etc. It's really about discipline and it's time people stop putting RELIGION OVER COMMON SENSE.
People are not talking about Muslim women in army,.it is about woman in work force.if it was in army nobody would question it. And in school , I don't know what happens in your school but discipline doesn't require you to abandon your identity. In my school we pray so we are showing belief in God which breaks the thought about uniformity that everybody is same. If it is about uniformity who decides what uniformity to follow. Why not implement everybody having to wear headscarf.
Why is a headscarf hurting your sanity? How does it interfere with anything at all? You lack common sense yet preached others to have one?
Should any government make it a law for someone to come naked or completely clothed on commercial premises? Should any government ask your mom, sister, wife, daughter, or grandmother to wear something they like or dislike? Should any government ask any female to remove any cloth from her body that she herself chooses to wear?
i can understand if its a safety issue (like if u work in a kitchen or as like a firefighter or whatever) but if theres no legitimate reason for it then ... why
Company rules. She can go and look for a job else where.
Ok but y was she shouting the whole time lol 😭
My respect for peers ⬆️ ❤
Any employer can enforce a dress code for employees ... as simple as that ...
Religious beliefs are deeply personal and need to be kept that way. I don’t expect people to respect my beliefs and a privately run company is no different. The company is right to impose these policies.
She is wearing a scarf, not converting people to her religion actively, if people like you get offended by seeing a woman protecting their modesty (cause let's be honest, you westerners were brought up by Harlots for the majority of the cases) then you need to be more knowledgeable about other lives
Especially because some believes are diametrically opposed („dont talk to women, they should be at home and not be seen in society“ vs. „women and men are all equal“). Belief is something very personal and can be very very problematic. Keep them out of companies.
If the company wants you bald or naked will you?
@@sayednaweed745 it’s really simple. If you don’t like a company’s policy, if you don’t approve of them, if they piss you off…..THEN JUST LEAVE…nobody is forcing you to stay there. If I”ve invested millions and millions and millions of my/ investors money into setting up and running a company, nobody is going to tell me how to run it.
How would you like it, if somebody walks into your house and demands that you change the wall colours, because it’s not their favourite colour???
@@ezeee595 I agree, but it is not fair to compare a home with a company basically my point is a company can have large number of employees with different cultures and believes but this is not in case of a home hence no need to convince. For example ask a pope to perform prayer in Muslim mosque he will reject but ask him to pray in church he will do it without a force.
Respect others choices if there choices does not have negative impact on other peoples and there choices does not have any thing to do with the business operation let's assume you have a son and he doesn't want to eat something you offered will you force him?.
At last this is exploitation a person who has the choice to work somewhere else will not accept such rudeness think if for someone it is the only choice he must obey therefore companies has a advantage to exploit any one in any form.
So, as a man who believes in the religion of Iron man, I can wear Speedos to work?
A good friend of mine as well as my wife are Christian but they're also Japanese. Even though they're not Buddhist, they're uncomfortable if you leave your chopsticks sticking out of your food, especially rice. It's both religious and cultural. I think it's very similar to the headscarf deal.
Also, as an American, I'm used to the reverence of freedom, which makes this a tricky issue to me. We have the freedom to practice religion (provided no one gets hurt) pretty much anywhere---it's one of our fundamental rights---but private companies should also have the right to implement a dress code to their employees. I work at a gym and we have to wear uniforms, though I don't think a headscarf would be an issue (though a full-on face covering would).
That woman on the left sucks at discussion/debate, though. I totally agree with Piers on this one.
I don't think she sucked. Piers always interrupts the person he disagrees, so it becomes very difficult for them to get their message across. I think she handled herself well.
I think common sense would be to say good luck to that company and bye bye.
It's just kinda funny XDXD imagine taking this argument to a Muslim country like mine, Malaysia.
Try this in Japan bodoh
