Staff Handbook - Dress and Appearance Policy

Updated: Dec 18, 2022


While an employer wants to establish criteria for acceptable standards of dress and personal appearance in the workplace, when employees are working remotely, and when employees are travelling on company business, this Dress and Appearance Policy can be used to do so.


There are alternative clauses for circumstances in which employees are expected to dress formally for business, for circumstances in which employees are required to wear a uniform and/or personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves or a hard hat, and for circumstances in which employees are permitted to dress casually.


The policy also acknowledges that there may be circumstances in which employees find it difficult to follow the company's dress code. For example, if an employee has a disability or is experiencing menopausal symptoms, the policy recognises that this may be a difficult time for them to adhere to the dress code.


Employers have a responsibility to take reasonable precautions to ensure that their policies regarding dress and appearance do not constitute direct or indirect discrimination on the basis of gender, race, religion or belief, or disability.


Employers should also ensure that any requirements can be objectively justified.


A requirement should be linked to grounds of safety, health, or cleanliness, to prevent offence, or to ensure that employees portray a professional image of the company to the public in order for there to be any possibility of it being justifiable.


建立和执行公司着装要求是人力资源部门工作的一部分,致力于促进和维持高效,快乐的员工队伍。


遵循您的公司文化,制定《着装政策》。


在当今广泛的行业中,有许多不同级别的形式,商务着装与休闲服装的需求差异很大。


有些公司每天与客户面对面交流,第一印象对他们的成功至关重要。


但在许多情况下,只有某些部门必须与客户会面,而其他员工则在幕后操作。


在确定《着装政策》之前,人力资源部门需要考虑的是公司需要什么。

对于一家拥有悠闲文化的软件开发公司工作,大多数是20多岁的员工,那么休闲着装可能效果最好。

对于一家律师事务所,又或者是会计楼来说,员工必须不断与客户见面,那么更严格的商业着装更合适。

用人单位也必须谨慎:

  • 一方面确保公司关于着装和外表的规定,不直接或间接构成性别、种族、宗教或信仰或残障的歧视;

  • 另一方面,请务必也确保灵活;

  • 同时也需要考量安全、健康或卫生等因素。

用人单位应确保他们对男性和女性雇员,都采用相同的标准。 万一并员工的宗教或文化,可能导致他们无法遵守政策,那么需要适时作出相应的调整。 因此《着装政策》也包括了“宗教和文化着装”部分,以便更详细地说明有哪些事项需要留意。
