Question
I serve as a kashrut supervisor in a factory and work during candle lighting time. Is there a point in lighting Hanukkah candles there for the workers who do not light them at home?
Answer
Greetings and Happy Hanukkah
It is not advisable to light there. It does not fulfill their obligation, and it may mislead the workers into thinking that they have fulfilled their obligation.
