Read previewDelta Air Lines is being sued by a Jewish flight attendant who is claiming religious discrimination, according to a lawsuit seen by Business Insider.
This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers.
Sheva, a California resident, has worked for Delta for two-and-a-half years, performing his duties in "a satisfactory manner," the complaint says.
But despite Sheva's employee profile "clearly stating that he is Hebrew-speaking, Jewish and vegetarian, he was provided with a ham sandwich," the complaint continues.
Sheva took time off work to recover after both incidents, but the complaint says that Delta "engaged in behavior to belittle" his injuries.
