We currently have the practice of allowing more casual clothes to be worn to work on Fridays. In an effort to make positive changes and boost company morale we have decided to make “Business Casual” the new standard of dress for all Sales Department Employees who do not have direct contact with customers or clients.

It is imperative to the financial success of our company that you continue to represent us in a trustworthy, professional light. For that reason, Sales Representatives will be required to dress in the standard business formalwear when making sales calls or during meeting with clients. However, it will now be at your discretion to dress business casual during those times when you are in the office completing paperwork, preparing for meetings or creating presentations.

Cologne and perfume are to be used in moderation; it should not be overpowering or offensive to others. The following are examples of appropriate dress attire....
