The "cross necklace controversy" refers to debates, particularly in the UK, over whether employees can wear visible Christian cross necklaces at work. Some employers have asked staff to remove such necklaces, citing uniform or health and safety policies, which has led to legal cases and discussions about religious freedom and discrimination. Notable cases include those of British Airways employee Nadia Eweida and nurse Shirley Chaplin.
