5.5. Religious Beliefs Some religious views may preclude the insertion of an implant (there is some evidence of some very strongly held views in this regard including the suggestion that they are the ‘Mark of the Beast’ e.g.30,31) and the requirement to do so (or perceived pressure to do so) may be seen as a form of religious discrimination (see also Chapter 4.6). For some religions, any intrusion into the human body, even on the strongest of medical grounds, is unacceptable and it is difficult to see how the insertion of an ID chip as a requirement for employment could be tolerated under such circumstances.
