Dear Mr Saikumar
Practical problems force us to interpret law differently. Layoff in its definition does not co ntemplate stopping at the gate for non wearing of uniform if he is a workman under ID Act. At the most Standing Orders can specify the same.
I am just giving an argument to the extreme............ If an employee comes in shorts will you allow him or will you stop him at the gate?
If an employee is issued with uniform as per any agreement, then it implies wearing of uniform is a precondition to enter work premises and if he or she does not fulfill the condition, he or she need not be permitted to work.
If the Management is very strict right from day one, all will come in uniform or in dress code. If one lets it loose and start sending advisory notes etc, employees will take advantage
Can a waiter in a restaurant be without uniform or dress code? Bus conductor is always seen in uniform?
I would like to close my posting on this subject with an observation that stopping at the gate due to non wearing of uniform will not amount to lay off
Be firm and have conviction
