OLYMPIA, Wash. (Legal Newsline) – Gate Gourmet could be obligated to make certain accommodations for employees’ religious beliefs, according to a decision issued by the Washington Supreme Court.

The state Supreme Court of Appeals on May 22 reversed a trial court’s dismissal of a class action lawsuit against Gate Gourmet alleging it did not reasonably accommodate its employees’ religious practices by serving them meals that contained animal byproducts at lunch.
