But what if being oneself entails behaviors, mannerisms, and values integrally linked to the employee's gender, race, or religion? And what if the basis for the employer's workplace rules and...; Search Snippet: ...Law Fall, 2014 Article Coercive Assimilationism: the Perils of Muslim Women's Identity Performance in the Workplace Sahar F.
