This isn't about banning people from wearing their religious merchandise in public. This is banning religious objects from workplaces. More precisely just public workplaces. Of course a secular state should also have secular workplaces. And the way labour rights are personal life can be completely banned from your workplace. Why would religion be treated differently?
Is that the workplace you want? Devoid of personal lives but mere drones who congregate to labour and then disperse into their personal lives where finally they are free to express themselves how they want?
If your personal life is 100% religion, you're a drone anyway.
The ol strawman
No I want democratic workplaces. But also workplaces without religion nonetheless.
Is that a trick question? Because my answer is a resounding yes.
That's what capitalism wants. They want their leaders and ceos to be their gods.
