- Last month, the internationalpayment system, PayPal,

launched Believe, an employee effort

designed to promoteawareness and understanding

of workers' faiths and worldviews.

And PayPal is not alone.

Last year, Walmart introducedits employee faith group,

joining other top companieslike Texas Instruments,

American Airlines and Salesforce.

Dr. Brian Grim,

president of the ReligiousFreedom and Business Foundation,

spearheads the push tomake corporate America

faith friendly.

- They're they're not thereto substitute for church

or for going to synagogue orsome other place of worship,

but they're there to givesupport to employees,

recognizing that if you bringyour whole self to work,

including your faith,

that you're more likelyto stick at the job,

be excited about the job,

and it gives you insights

into customers and clientsand your fellow employees,

even if they're a different faith.

- [Heather] These groups could help

fight workplace discrimination.

In 2018, the EEOC had morecomplaints about religion

than sexual orientationand it's good business

thanks to a growing population.

By 2050, there will be 2.3 billion

more religiously affiliatedpeople on the planet.

Research also shows economies thrive

when cultures are open to religion.

- Where are you have a more open society,

to matters of faith,

giving people the freedom to have a faith

or change their faith,

or even have no faith at all,

that that coincides withmore innovative thinking.

It also coincides with amore robust civil society.

All of which are important factors

for having an economythat's built to last.

- [Heather] And corporate leaders

say becoming faith friendlycan also hep attract workers.

- And it's a great message togo out to university campuses

and to talk about diversityand inclusion at your company,

to be able to say we havefaith-based initiatives.

- It's no longer just aboutconstitutional freedom.

Promoting religiousdiversity in the workplace

can now be seen as just good business.
