The men have launched legal action after management at Orly airport allegedly rounded up Muslim staff and asked them to trim their facial hair in the wake of the Paris terror attacks.
One
of the men, named only as Bachir, claimed he had faced negative
comments from colleagues, with one supervisor 'offering to bring in a
lawnmower' to trim his beard.
But
he refused to comply with the grooming policy, insisting his beard 'was
for fashion in a hipster style... and not for religion.'
The
28-year-old, who had worked at the airport for five years, claims he was
fired just days later after filed a discrimination complaint, it was
reported by Le Parisien.
Another
guard, named as Bechir, told BFM TV he suspected he was fired over his
beard, although he was told he had lost his job months before the Paris
attacks because he was 'medically unfit.' Cont.
