Our organization's professional dress code is designed to ensure that all employees project a professional image that is consistent with our company's values and objectives. These guidelines apply to all employees and are in place to maintain a cohesive and respectful workplace. Employees are expected to adhere to these guidelines during business hours and at any company-related events.
Employees in client-facing roles or senior positions are required to adhere to a business attire standard. Common expectations include:
Men: Suits, dress shirts, ties, dress shoes
Women: Tailored dresses, skirts, blouses, dress pants, closed-toe shoes
For employees whose roles do not regularly require client interaction, a business casual dress code may be appropriate. Business casual includes but is not limited to:

Women: Blouses, cardigans, modest skirts, flats
The following items are considered inappropriate for the workplace and are prohibited:
Ripped or torn clothing
Clothing with offensive graphics or language
