Workers at Tyson Foods' poultry processing plant in Shelbyville will no longer have a paid day off on Labor Day, but will instead take the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr in the fall.
A recent press release from the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU) stated that a new contract at the Shelbyville facility "implements a new holiday to accommodate the ... Muslim workers at the plant."
The RWDSU stated that "the five-year contract creates an additional paid holiday, Iidal Fitil, a Muslim holiday that occurs toward the end of Ramadan."

Organised religion is the ultimate form of blasphemy.

Not American but have you actually checked the comments on the link to the article, some really unpleasant people out there would be more worried about them
This is what happens when a US company brings in cheap labor.
Regardless, it's still driven by religion. The Union is acommodating its muslim Somali members.
