this is a professional environment, not a place that hires unskilled workers, would u fight a new dress code if it seemed arbitrary? please assume that u will continue to work there for at least a year and not just leave!
I would "fight it" in my own way by simply ignoring it unless the management wants to purchase a new wardrobe for me at their expense. If a person has already been working for this company & they decide to make a new policy, then it is legally THEIR responsibility to pay for your new UNIFORM's! Now if they are only prohibiting the wearing of certain clothing items, like open toe shoes or backless shoes, that's a safety issue & they should give you at least 3 months to fully comply with a request like that. You could contact the ACLU & see if they have any advice for you on this issue. Sounds like something they might be into! If you are fired for non-compliance, you can collect unemployment benefits & possibly even sue them for a stress related illness if you end up in a Doctor's Office! |
