German Muslims Suffer Job Discrimination

July 16, 2011 in Business, News, Society & Culture

CAIRO – Well-qualified, ambitious and skilled Germen Muslims are complaining of growing discrimination against them in the job market, especially veiled women, who are taking the full brunt for their dress.

“Society is not open enough to let us work,” Erika Theissen, managing director of the Muslim Women’s Center for Encounters and Further Education (BFmF) in Cologne, told Deutsche Welle on Sunday, July 10.

Converting to Islam in the 1980s, she dons a carefully matched pastel blue headscarf to the rest of her outfit.

Noticing the changing work atmosphere in Germany, accompanied by exclusion of many Muslim women from work, Theissen established her BFmF center which employs over 50 Muslim women, some of them highly qualified.

In Dusseldorf, the North Rhine-Westphalian capital, she currently organizes a conference gathering about 80 people including scientists, politicians, activists and Muslim social workers to discuss discrimination against Muslim women in the workplace.

July 6, 2011 in Business

Muslim women who done the hijab, a scarf that covers the head except the face may face much discrimination in finding suitable employment due to on the job discrimination. While it is illegal to not hire someone based on religious affiliation, discrimination will still prevail in the work place.

So what can Muslim women who wear the hijab do? They can become employers themselves by starting their own business.  Working for yourself is the single greatest self-esteem booster.  It enables you to hire and make choices in employees who are best for your business, generate an income you probably never believed you could imagine. How can Muslim women see this reality sooner than later? It takes a simple decision to direct your attention towards business ownership. It takes some research to decide what you will sell. The single easiest way for Muslim women to venture into a business is simply by opening a cart or kiosk in their local Mall. 

 There is a check list available one can follow to ensure an ease into a business in a Mall. For details, you can log into Habibi Matrimonials if you are not a member you can sign up for free and see our Admin Blogs, “How to Open Up a Cart in the Mall.”

This will give the reader exact details on how they can achieve this successfully, Insha Allah.
