Female employee wearing sensational clothes in office

Hi all,

Good that someone finally came up with this issue on citehr. The sensational clothing thing is spreading everywhere like a virus. It is happening everywhere even if u have a dress code.
Its important for us to understand that the office environment doesn't want us to impress anybody by our looks. We should change our thinking that no body gets success by their smart looks they gets it with their smart work.
Let all the beauty queens do the show off & become the center of attraction. All the smart professionals knows it that this will not take them that far to the sucess.

Keep loving ur work n do it sincerely. Let the world do the jhing pang stuff.

Dear Preeti,

Since she is newly joined you may better talk to her in private and advice her with regard to dress code (though you don't have a written policy) without hurting her. But, please don't send mails to all since this will definitely hurt her since she alone is wearing this type of dresses.

Thanks

I feel there is a very simple to this other than getting involved with dress code and all policy. I have not come across any organization with large numbers to have a dress code for FEMALES. I can go from any big organization as for females it is hardly expected that they shall dress akward.

Simple see whom she is confortable as a friend and inform that person who can inform this girl. by sending mails and communicating she might feel offended and might even leave the job as she might feel isolated and insulated.

Dear Preeti

Please call her and coucel her for the first time, if she doesn't change give her a warning....even after if she doesn't change ask her to leave the job. You can also involve her supervisor in the process

It is better to have dress code policy. Our good friends in our community can share thier policy.

Thanks and regards

Dear preeti,
A very simple solution to your problem is to make a manadatory dress code to everyone, but after concerning your seniors.

Dear All,

Thanks again for your millionaire replies. I saw this site today as my thread was closed i was bit upset but now after receiving your responses am feeling nice, thanks again.
This issue is very sensitive i was not confident enough when i have posted this thread but i was prepared somewhere for negative responses from some of our members.
I would like to apologize if i have hurted some one unintentionally especially Narasimhan

As you all know i have dropped email to all females and i had a word with my director too. He has asked me to prepare dress code policy and to implement the same asap. I will be doing the same by tomorrow. But i came to know few more things about her (her reaction after that email). What i have heard is not official words but from one female colleague. She told her that she is not going to change her dressing at any cost no one can make her to do that in fact i will approach HQ HR (Finland HR) and will make realize that what is modern and smart dressing. She mean to say what she is wearing is not wrong. All females know and are confident enough she wears all this clothes purposely. No other employees are comfortable talking with her. And she has told to one of female that she got permission from our director for wearing this type of clothes, i was shocked when i heard all this.
I have dropped email to all females on Monday, after 5 days still there is no change in her dressing. In fact she went to my director asking what is meant by decent clothes and she asked him what i wear is really that hot. I don't know what kind of girl she is. My director has told her directly what she is suppose to wear but i don't find any change in her. We are going to implement dress code now and lets see what happens after that.
Unfortunately with whom she works closely is sales manager but a male. and i dont think so he will convey our message to her in right sense as i know him he is not that trustworthy.

I again want to say to all that my only concern is work environment and to maintain office decorum and no intentions to insult any one or any thing out of envy.

Thanks & Regards,

Preeti

Hi Preeti

I am really very shocking news about this think, transparently cloth may not be allowed in organisation because we are working get together this is really not good.

Told to her directly and immediately, don’t worry if you have not any dress code in your company it means any girl come in organization only two pieces. NO It’s not I think you are late? Please tell to 1st day about the wear of cloths in organization.

Sorry to say if any Girl wears the transparency cloths that call (AA BALL MUJHE MAR) don't give any chance to any men for seen / talking sensitive words, because we are Indian and our culture is not allowed in the sociality.

I think you should talk to her immediately and positively and tell her strictly [this is not allowed in this company].

I am also working as HR person in a reputed pharmaceutical company I need share one experience with all.

Before two year we are doing the interview alonwith some seniors, one girl came for the interview and she wear transparency top, after seen that girl our one person immediately out from the room and one person said Mr. …. (For me) please handle this case? I am very shocking at that time? And told her “madam you are coming for interview please welcome but we are not allowed this type of cloths”. Said girl told immediately “sorry we don’t repeat this think in future”. Unfortunately she found technically very sound. Our VP told to me we can hire this candidate but first you told to her wearing the cloth”, I was not agree with that comments / taking her as candidature. So I counsel with her alongwith one GM, one HOD, and one Lady Employee. She told the same {sir please I don’t repeat this in future’

Presently she is working with us from last two year and never wears any transparency / questionable cloth. She wears always only Kurta, Salwar, alonwith Chunni. And told me you are just like my parents.

Please counsel with her with love, don’t worry I think she can understand about this.

Thanks

Hi Preeti,

Don’t worry about this, please share this type of experience or incident.

Hi All / Some one,

Please let me know about the dress code, if you have not dress code in the organization then any girls wear the any cloths just like sensitive. No it’s not fine, is experience as HR Person have working four organizations. Not any dress code in two organizations and girls not allowed with transparency cloth in the organization.

This is the fault of the culture of her family.

Please counsel her immediately, if any person not maintained office manner / culture than please make a notice to them immediately. Disobediences in Indian office culture.

Thanks & regards

Dear Preethi,

I have read your recent note and find that you have made some progress.

With reference to para 3, I an not sure if Narishma refers to me (Narasimhan). I am not at all hurt. I know we make comments sometimes in haste and feel that we could have used a different language to do it.

Unless the girl is indespensible to the organisation, she will leave the company sooner or later, if she does not want to conform.

Wish you all the best with your efforts. Though I may live abroad, my Indian values have not changed.

Narasimhan
