It is only stupid if the employer can adequately demonstrate the safety issue.... This line in the story does not work...
"By taking her hand off the wheel to adjust her skirt, Jenkins could put her passengers in danger"
Like women in pants (or men for that matter) would do less "adjusting" - I don't think so....

Seems to me the culottes should have resolved the conflict though.

Stephen Hoover;~ What I find stupid is this person sued, if you can't wear the uniform don't apply for the job... Like wanting to be a cop, they wear pants, it's part of their job, if it goes against your beliefs well find another job, easy really~

In this case you are likely right. But what if there really was discrimination going on?

The workers in my facility are required, by the USDA, to wear certain personal protective equipment which, among other things, includes wearing slacks and not dresses. This is an unfortunate fact of life and it is for the protection and quality of our product. There are no less than 21 UPC gals that are employed at my plant and all abide by the rules without ridicule from the pastor or the saints. Everyone knows they are Pentecostal and they have been a great witnesses for G_d. It can be done, even if they can't wear dresses.

Sure if they said she could not do the job because of her gender, but due to the fact she can't wear a skirt, please!

About 10 years ago at Bloomington, In. Otis Elevator fired a lady for not wearing pants of all folks the ACLU sued for her and got her job back and back pay and an apology. They had no WRITTEN policy and you just can't make it up as you go.
