Hair length, visible tattoos, gender non-conforming style, summer dress codes: employers must define their culture and policies while following federal and state law. This 60-minute dress code and appearance policy webinar explains how to balance employees' right to express themselves with legitimate business needs and an inclusive workplace.
Research shows these biases are widespread in U.S. workplaces, and society now accepts more forms of self-expression, so the risk of mistakes is high. You'll look at body art and tattoos, international, religious and political dress, sex stereotyping, the NLRB's position, EEOC guidelines and what to consider when writing your policy.
Dress codes are drawing attention in the courts, with precedent-setting lawsuits over requirements that, even unintentionally, discriminate based on gender, religion, race and other characteristics.
HR generalists, managers and directors need to understand how to write a dress code free of discrimination so that every candidate and employee is treated fairly and judged on performance rather than stereotypes.
