1. Reaching Consensus About Business Attire
Laura Rodriquez, Margarita Sabedra

2. What is acceptable to wear on dress-sown days?
Always stay casual. Still remain well-dressed and serve as good representatives for the company you work for.
Men- Wear an opened collared button down shirt, nice casual pants. Black or brown casual shoes.
Women- Nice pants with a blouse or sweater. Heels or flats.

4. Should our policy restrict tattoos and piercings?
No facial piercings, just normal size earrings are okay.
Replace face jewelry with retainer jewelry.
Tattoos that are small and not offensive are okay.
If possible try and cover them up as much as possible.

5. How should supervisors react when clothing is offensive, tasteless, revealing, or sloppy?
Take disciplinary actions- treat a dress code violation like an incident of being late to work.

6. Give a verbal warning. Somewhere private, not in front of others.
Do a follow up written warning. This time have a member from the HR department present at the time of issuing the warning.
Terminate the employee if the worker exhausts a standard amount of written warnings.

7. Is it possible to develop a uniform definition of acceptable casual attire.
Yes, to understand basic guidelines for casual attire. What one person views as casual, another may see as formal and another may view as being underdressed. A dress code cannot cover every detail of how an employee should dress, so employees must use their best judgment or check with the HR department or your boss.

8. Do the disadvantages of a dress-down policy outweigh the advantages?
Negative impact on clients
Comfortable working clothes
Increase employee morale
Show employee appreciation
Open communication between staff and managers
Improved work quality
Increase work productivity
