Hi All,

I need your help! We have recruited one new girl as a Business Manager. She was previously working with one of leading media channel as Event coordinator. She joined us on 10th May. She comes to office wearing sensational clothes. We don't have any dress code but we all girls wears descent clothes in office. We are IT software co. with staff of 12 + this new joiner now 13. we wear jeans in week days too but till date we have never felt awkward even wearing capris on Saturdays. All girls and boys wears smart casuals on weekends and in weekdays smart formals or semi formals.
This girl wears salwar kameez also in so vulgar way that it looks so cheap we feel uncomfortable talking with our male staff. All my colleagues are unhappy with her dressing in fact she is giving chance to guys. which is so bad. She wears backless tops with capris or jeans combine this tops with transparent jackets from which every thing is visible, she wears salwaar kameez with horrible necks and backs are always open that too with sleeveless. It looks like she is doing this things purposely she doesn't take care about her exposed body parts. Very soon she will spoil our environment in office.
Being HR i was just watching till date as she is new joiner so i thought it doesn't look good to pinpoint her but now am thinking to drop her email without keeping copy to my director as he is a guy i feel awkward.
Please suggest me should i keep a copy or mark mail to all the girls or to her only. I know no one else needs this email but only i want her to stop wearing all this nonsense clothes at least in office she can wear anything in her personal time.

Please reply me asap so that i can drop her email.

Thanks

Regards,
Amisha

Hi Amisha,

Greetings. If an organisation doesn't have dress code, might be they are facing problem like yours.

Being as a HR Person its your responsibility to maintain organisation environment & culture. Without disturbing your direct, I suppose you can solve the problem in below way.

Shot a mail decent mail to every employee (all email ids in to field) & write them that we all are enjoying working together in team & have impression of decent persons in each other. Like other organisation we dont have any dress code but even though we all come in decent formal or semi formals always. Since last little time I have seen some of the persons wearing exposed cloths which is spoiling our office culture & impression in market. Being as a HR Person I thought to solve the problem internaly without involving director as If I go to director, I will take approval for all that everyone have to wear formals like males trouser - shirts & females Saree or decent punjabi suits. Else will ask them to apply dress code system. Please cooperate with your choice.

Like this is just a sample which can be modified as per your own need as you are more aware with mindset of your employees.

If this doesn,t solve the problem, go to your director without hesistant & ask him to immediatly apply dress code system.

I think Narasimhan should'nt reply in this manner. Its totally not good.

More suggestion from our Senior Team Members are most Welcome.

Bye Take Care.
