Question

Polar plus industries has a zero tolerance policy on discrimination and harassment based on race, color, gender, national origin, religion, or sexual orientation. the policy states that employees need to treat each other with respect. estelle, a polar plus employee, is assigned a project with four other co-workers, including marty, an openly gay man. estelle believes that homosexuality is immoral and acknowledging marty in any way would be like accepting homosexuality, which goes against her religion. thus, she refuses to communicate or work with marty. as a result, her team has difficulty completing its project. in this scenario,

Answer 1

In this case, Estelle is violating the rules of Polar Plus. By not communicating with one of her team prevents the progress of one of the Polar Plus project. Also, as she puts the company on a status that would make the company be in a position of discrimination since she holds the team. As an employee, it is better to do her work and disregard whatever the personal belief, physical appearance, gender or religion that her co-workers have. As long as this does not affect the work duties and responsibilities, she must maintain harmony and be responsible for a smooth workflow.
