Dress Guidelines
Our office dress code is business casual, but that’s subject to a lot of interpretation. Maybe think of it this way…if your outfit would be distracting to your co-workers, it’s probably not appropriate. Make sure your clothes are clean, in good repair, slogan-free and not too revealing. Clothes that are meant for the gym or the beach are not appropriate. Ties, jackets or pumps are not required, but neither are they unwelcome. On Fridays, most staff have the freedom to dress more casually, including wearing jeans. Some field staff are required to wear a uniform (that makes it easy)! Some can wear jeans topped with a BC Housing shirt. In some situations, business casual would be “overdressed” and potentially intimidating to our clients. Each department sets the tone for what’s appropriate for each work area. When in doubt, ask your manager.
