Presented by John B. Phillips, Jr. and Kara Shea
Thursday, September 28, 2006
Even though the live seminar on this topic has already taken place, you can still hear it! For your convenience, we've recorded it on CD, so you can listen when you have time or share it with colleagues in your organization.
Casual Fridays in many workplaces has given way to Business Casual -- every day. And that has many employers worried about workplace dress codes in flux. Some have been gently reining in the most casual attire. Some have just plain cracked down.
So what can you restrict about cleavage, exposed midriffs, or back? What can you demand when it comes to jewelry, tattoos, wild hair, tight jeans, loose pants, T-shirts, flip-flops, Spandex, untucked shirts, and short shorts?
If you have a dress code, how specific is it? Is it fully legal, or as effective as it could be?
Spend just 90 minutes to learn the practical and legal ramifications of your workplace attire policies. Particpate in the audio conference, Too Short, Too Sloppy, TOO MUCH - Reining in Business Casual.
You'll learn from acclaimed presenters and attorneys John Phillips and Kara Shea all about how to keep your attire policies from sparking sex discrimination, harassment, religious, national origin, race and privacy invasion claims.
And these matters are complex. Courts are grappling with an employer's right to restrict dress or appearance relating to a number of situations, such as:
- When employers interfere with an employee's religion, such as in the case of the Church of Body Modification or a religion that requires the wearing of certain headgear or head coverings.
- When employers interfere with an employee's affiliation with his race, like dreadlocks for an African-American.
- When a policy seems to have an impact on women but not on men, like one dealing with women’s revealing clothes.
- When a policy seems to have an impact on men but not on women, like one banning earrings on men.
Plus, you learn practical strategies for handling some of the more delicate issues involving customer and coworker complaints, how your competition is dressed, and safety concerns.
Bonus: In addition to your audio conference materials, you'll also receive a sample appearance code policy. Register now for Too Short, Too Sloppy, TOO MUCH - Reining in Business Casual
