Employee Handbook

Different departments may have specific requirements that result in particular clothing demands, for example, because their work raises health and safety risks. It is important that all employees dress in a manner appropriate to their working environment and the type of work they do. Company-issued clothing (including Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)) must be maintained in a clean, presentable and compliant manner in relation to their working environment. Appearance While working for the Company, you represent the Company with clients and the public. Your appearance contributes to the Company's reputation and the development of the business. Footwear must be safe and clean, and take into account health and safety considerations. Where the Company provide Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and equipment, including protective footwear, it must be worn or used as appropriate and directed. Employees should not wear clothing or jewellery that could present a health and safety risk. Religious and cultural dress Employees with religious or cultural beliefs that may affect the company dress code or company culture must declare their beliefs to their line manager, where a sympathetic approach will be taken without compromising company health and safety. Where necessary, your line manager can disseminate appropriate information explaining cultural dress and customs. Priority is at all times given to health and safety requirements. Where necessary, advice will be taken from the Company Health and Safety Officer. Implementing and reviewing the Company dress code Managers are responsible for ensuring that employees observe the standards set by this dress code. Failure to comply with the dress code may result in action under the Company Disciplinary Procedure.
