Have you ever wondered what consequences there are if you do not follow company dress guidelines? Can they just fire you if one day you wake up and chose to wear what you feel like to work?
Although each company is different, similar disciplinary actions apply to most. I will use the example of my workplace, where I am a retail store manager. On the first offense, a superior may approach the employee and confront them in private about what they are wearing that is inappropriate, and why, according to company policies. They may be sent home and asked to change, depending on how in appropriate their dress is. On the next offense, they would definitely be written up, with warning that if their dress does not improve, they may be suspended or let go from work.
Dress code a very important policy to follow because you represent the brand you are working for each time you encounter a client or any other person. If you seem professional and well organized in your appearance, it will be assumed that you as a person are the same and so is the company you work for.
