(THE DAILY WIRE) – Americans facing religious discrimination in the workplace have a new federal resource after the Department of Labor on Thursday launched its Center for Faith.
Pray for your fellow intercessor.
The new website directs users to resources for addressing workplace discrimination based on religion, including guidance on filing complaints and information on support programs.
“250 years ago, our nation was founded on the fundamental idea of liberty for all, including the right to religious freedom,” Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer told The Daily Wire. “The Trump administration is committed to upholding this core principle.”
“That’s why the Labor Department’s Center for Faith launched a new website, which provides clear assistance for anyone who has faced religious discrimination in the workplace,” she added.
The launch follows an executive order from President Donald Trump establishing a White House Office of Faith and directing federal agencies to expand resources for religious Americans.
One of the tools included on the site is an interactive map outlining state-level and federal options for individuals who believe they have experienced religious discrimination. The map also provides instructions on how to file complaints.
The website also lays out how religious groups can apply for Department of Labor grants and partner with the agency on initiatives addressing poverty, substance use recovery, and community revitalization.
“This guidance reflects the Administration’s commitment to protecting religious liberty, promoting economic opportunities, and fostering partnerships that build upon the documented successes of faith groups in serving Americans in need,” the website says.
Last year, the Labor Department welcomed back faith-based organizations to the federal grant process after President Joe Biden sidelined them in favor of DEI-focused groups.
The website also includes guidance for smaller faith-based organizations on structuring retirement plans.
“As you work to select and offer a retirement plan for your employees, you may face certain decision points that secular employers do not,” the website says. “You may also find that while there are many strong service providers who help small employers in this process, there are fewer who have experience specifically helping faith-based employers.”
