Female managers are expected to wear business attire such as blouses, slacks,
skirts, dresses, blazers, or jackets. Supervisors and rank and file employees are
expected to wear the prescribed uniform, if applicable, or business attire.
During Fridays, all employees can wear office appropriate casual attire. Casual
attire may be worn during field work which requires the employee to be out of
the office for four (4) hours or more.
Policy for “business casual Friday” The Company has introduced “Casual Fridays”
to provide an alternative dress code for staff members in the workplace on
Fridays. However, staff members are expected to dress casual in a manner
appropriate with the professional image in mind for a business environment.
Casual clothes on Fridays in a corporate environment should maintain a decent
appearance whilst allowing for more comfort and convenience than normal
business attire. On Casual Fridays, staff members may opt to wear clothing that
is comfortable and practical for work. Any clothing which is distracting or
offensive to others is considered as inappropriate.
Examples of inappropriate clothing include (but are not limited to): - t-shirt with
inappropriate or offensive logos or prints - sleeveless shirts for male - torn or
‘bleached’ jeans - shorts or leggings - tracksuits - sport shoes - slippers or flip flops
- items which are strapless, tube top.
Business casual Friday does not apply to staff members serving duties at the
reception, and receptionist. The dress code for business casual Fridays is also
applicable to staff members taking a half-day off and to “early-off days”, working
days preceding public holidays. The Management will review the policy from time
to time and make necessary amendments should the need arise. On the last
working day of the week, employees can wear business casuals (Plain denims are
not allowed. However, if there is a business appointment, then dress code needs
to be formal.
The Company imposes strict conformity with regards to any style and urges staff
members to avoid extreme styles or those associated with leisure or after-office-
hour attire. In other words, it is always important to wear clean and presentable
clothes. This conveys the respect we have for the people around us. Staff
members who have business appointments or engaging in any face-to-face
activities with clients within or outside the office on Fridays should adopt the
business casual Fridays’ dress code only when it is practical and applicable.
