For an employer to fail to provide a religious accommodation, unless the employer
can demonstrate it cannot reasonably accommodate the employee's religious observance
or practice without undue hardship.

(c)

Discrimination by an employment agency. Except when based on a bona fide occupational qualification, for an employment agency
when race, color, creed, religion, ancestry, national origin, sex, sexual orientation,
familial status, gender identity, disability, age, marital status, status with regard
to a public assistance program, housing status, justice-impacted status, height and
weight, or any combination thereof, is a motivating factor:

(1)

To refuse or fail to accept, register, classify properly, or refer for employment
or otherwise to discriminate against a person.

(2)

To comply with a request from an employer for referral of applicants for employment
if the request indicates directly or indirectly that the employer fails to comply
with the provisions of this title.

(3)

To fail to make reasonable accommodation to the known disability of a qualified person
with a disability, or known pregnancy-related limitation of a qualified employee,
unless it can demonstrate that the accommodation would impose an undue hardship on
it.

In determining whether an accommodation would impose an undue hardship on the operation
of an employment agency, factors to be considered include:

The overall size of the agency with respect to number of persons referred for employment
and the kind or type of employment to which persons are referred.

The nature and cost of the needed accommodation.
