Currys has scrapped staff name badges featuring Palestinian flags after complaints from Jewish customers who said they felt uncomfortable and unwelcome in stores.
The high street retailer, which operates around 300 stores across the UK and Ireland, had introduced the badges as part of an inclusion initiative, allowing staff to indicate the languages they spoke. However, after several complaints, Currys has now removed all world flags from name tags and is exploring alternative ways to inform customers about staff language skills, according to The Telegraph
