Is this a Hostile Workplace Environment?
Question:
I am a manager at a restaurant in the state of Alabama.
I have been told by the owner of the Franchise not to hire “blacks”
I have also been told that the only music permissible in the kitchen must be christian.
Must i really force my employees to listen something they don’t want to listen to?
I do believe that I have to put up with it in order to keep my job. If i get let go or i just get so tired of it i leave will i qualify for for unemployment?

That is flat out total racial and religious discrimination. Report that S.O.B. right now! If you get retaliated against, that, too, is illegal. Go to your HR department. If that doesn’t work, then go to the EEOC.
You might be able to still collect unemployment if you quit under something called Constructive Discharge. You’d quit because the work environment was intolerable due to illegal practices.
Document, document, document everything.
