In Photo ID Case, Security Concerns Win Out Over Religious Belief

August 20, 2009

In a case that pitted religious beliefs about photographs against the ramped up security concerns following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, a federal judge has ruled that an oil refinery had no duty to accommodate a worker who refused on religious grounds to pose for a photo ID.

In her 22-page opinion in Cherry v. Sunoco Inc., U.S. District Judge Cynthia M. Rufe of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania found that a 2002 federal law specifically mandated that all workers in port facilities carry photo ID, and that Sunoco had no power to waive that requirement.

John Cherry's lawyer, Sandra I. Thompson, argued that Sunoco could have accommodated Cherry by using biometric identification, such as fingerprints or iris scan, which Cherry had offered to pay for at least in part.

But Sunoco's lawyers, Daniel V. Johns and Farrah Gold of Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll, argued that the requirements of the Maritime Transportation Safety Act, along with the Coast Guard regulations that were passed in its wake, simply don't allow for any exceptions.

Rufe agreed, saying, Sunoco "could not waive this requirement nor could it make any accommodation that would eliminate the same without suffering undue hardship."

According to court papers, Cherry is a Black Israelite and a member of the Church of the True and Living God who believes that the Second Commandment prohibits him from posing for pictures or photographs and from carrying the same upon his person.

Cherry was hired in March 2001 to work at Sunoco's 1,000-acre, 1,500-employee Philadelphia refinery. At first, Sunoco accommodated his religious beliefs by allowing Cherry to carry an employee ID without a photograph.

Even after the events of Sept. 11, 2001, court records show that Sunoco continued to accommodate Cherry's refusal to pose for a photograph, but required him to report to security when he came into work to show his badge. Read More...

Southeast now requires IDs for students

By Rachel Brown
Dalton Daily Citizen
Southeast High School senior Zyra Miller says she doesn’t mind the school’s new requirement that all students wear identification badges, but she knows many students hate the concept.

“I think it’s a (good) way to make sure that the students are safe as well as the staff,” Miller said. “But it would be a disadvantage to those that are very forgetful.”

Principal Alan Long said this is the school’s first year to require students to wear ID badges, and the new policy goes into effect after the bar-coded cards are issued on Wednesday.

Southeast is the only local school that requires badges. There are no fees except for replacements. Long said the program is an effort to strengthen school security by creating a way for employees to immediately be able to identify those who are Southeast students and those who aren’t.

“Southeast High serves as a sort of transportation hub for buses in the morning, and students from Phoenix (High School) and the Whitfield Career Academy are also on the campus,” said school system spokesman Eric Beavers. Read More....

Rod Woodson's Hall of Fame speech

I was watching the speech Rod Woodson gave at the football hall of fame this weekend. The last words he delivered were very powerful so I went on line to find his speech to share with you and my children.

As I look back on the teams that I've faced and been a part of over the years, there is one common denominator about all those teams. I choose to be a part of a team, we have to live under the rules and the guides. If you want that team to function as one, we have to be obedient to the rules and regulation.
So I will leave you today to talk about choices or choice. Remember to choose or the choices you make in our lives will build our destinies that we make. Choices made throughout our lives were also determine our destiny. Matthew 22:14, many are called, few are chosen. God has given us a gift to choose. It's a power that we normally don't talk about. I leave you today with these thoughts. Choose. Choose to love rather than hate. Choose to create rather than to destroy. Choose to persevere rather than quit. Choose to praise rather than gossip. Choose to heal rather than wound. Choose to pray, rather than curse. Choose to live, rather than die. Choose Jesus Christ over the world. God bless you. (Rod Woodson) View entire speech...

FL hospital uses RFID to monitor employee hand washing

The University of Miami UM-JMH Center for Patient Safety at Jackson Memorial Hospital is testing a new system of monitoring employee hand washing using RFID and infrared technologies.

The program uses tiny IR-RF sensors installed in soap dispensers that read staff ID badges and record the location and duration of hand washing. The hospital then uses this data to identify which employees are not washing their hands for an adequate amount of time.

The system, developed using the technology of Versus Tech. and Dynamic Computer Corp., can also function as a kind of alarm, alerting employees in real time when they forget to wash their hands. Read More
