The Supreme Court’s decision in Goldman v. Weinberger does not affect the processing of Commission charges involving the issue of religious dress under Title VII. First, the case did not involve Title VII but the First Amendment. Moreover, even as to First Amendment challenges, the Court emphasized that it would give greater deference to military regulations than similar requirements applied only in a civil context. Quoting Schlesinger v. Councilman, 420 U.S. 738, 757 (1975), the Court said that “the military must insist upon a request for duty and a discipline in the place of equal in civilian lifetime.” Goldman, 475 U.S. at 508. (Emphasis added.)
Therefore, Goldman has no bearing on the processing of Title VII religious accommodation charges. The EOS should continue to rely on §§ 619 and 628 of Volume II of the Compliance Manual when a charge is filed with the Commission raising the issue of religious dress.
