Azov is a Ukrainian refugee. He has relocated to Tampa, fleeing the Russian invasion of his homeland. He applies for and is hired by a local cake shop, "Killer Cakes", which has over 15 employees. Azov is a devout member and believer in the Eastern Orthodox Church. He requests a religious accommodation to take weekends off because his religious beliefs require he take off the sabbath. Killer Cakes makes most of their dough, and cakes on the weekends. Azov's employer also did not know that Azov was religious when he was hired. Directions: Identify any defenses, including undue hardship that Killer Cakes might be able to argue.

Advise if not knowing Azov's religious beliefs before he was hired is a legitimate defense.
