Hi
I have worked in 2 leading Radio stations in Chennai and Mumbai for a period of 3 years. I have handled the On Ground job while in Chennai for over 1.5 years and have seen how it is in mumbai too.
To my knowledge they dont bring in policies like this because radio stations always thrive to connect with the local people. In a state like maharashtra which has a rich culture they cant do like this. You can mail me in my mail
and let me know which radio station is asking having policies like this. I will try my best to talk to that particular station in case it is required.
regards
rajaram

Hi,
As we all know company is more powerfull than an individual employee.
Company can't not compell any female employee for not wearing mangalsutra. If there is no specific provision embodied in appointment Terms & Conditions.

Dear Harshal
All policies of organisation will be written within frame work of law of land. In India wearing mangalsutra is tradition and accepted by the Hindu law. Just because of their policies, you need not remove or resign. Take up the matter appropriately with management. Just because you are not adheereing to their conditions which are contradictory to the law of land, they can not take action. So be brave and figh. One example : Wearing turban in France is prohibited but Sikh community foguht and won

First of all check your documents submitted at the time of joining, whether it is mentioned by HR anywhere towards this or not? and if it is so then ask why? i don't think any HR will ask so unrealistic thing as they are also from India as per my belief so plz clarify at HR and resolve otherwise there are so many options in your sphere right

No management will ask to remove mangalasutra they might have feel to cover with dress, as they require of their conditions of work , work is important ,no where the working conditions suggests the females not to be wear mangalasutra.

Hi Harshal,
First of all, as a policy, HR cannot object to wearing of mangalsutra as it is against the fundamental rights given by the Indian Constitution to practise/follow any religion. They can only request your sister not to display the mangalsutra prominently but to hide it inside her top/dress. There are some companies/TV channels that follow the above practise and as it also concerns the sentiments of not only the employee but the society around her, I suggest that your sister talks to the HR.
For your information, the erstwhile Air India which used to ground cabin crew once they got married, lost a case in the court and had to allow them to continue working as cabin crew. It is something else, if your sister wishes to remove her mangalsutra but HR cannot pressurise her to remove the mangal sutra but can, at best, request her not to display it too prominently.
May be someone in the forum can give a legal opinion on this as I feel that any kind of pressure can be considered illegal given the fact that the Indian Constitution provides for freedom to practise any religion.
