Policies on dress codes and employee appearance have generally been left to the discretion of employers and management. There are advantages for organizations to have a dress code so a certain image is projected. Organizational culture may play a role in developing a dress code that is appealing to employees, customers and clients.
More and more though, the workplace has become more diverse and as a result, other factors must be taken into consideration such as an employee's gender, race, ethnicity, religion, and disability. In addition, safety in the workplace must be considered in setting dress code policies. Other issues such as tattoos, body piercings, and hair styles must be addressed when dealing with contemporary employees.
