You Are What You Wear?
Tips for Appropriate Dress in the Workplace

Summertime means warmer weather, which often results in more confusion about what is appropriate attire for work. To help employees understand what is allowed and encouraged in the workplace, many employes implement a summertime dress code, which may be less formal than the company dress code for the remainder of the year. The website About.com shares a few tips for creating your Employee Dress Code.

When developing a Dress Code for your office, it is important to discover from your employees what their expectations are.  Many employees find that being comfortable equals being more productive. But you must also take into consideration what your clients are expecting when it comes to your company's brand.  Finding a good balance is extremely important.

It can be easy to let things get too casual in the summer, but employees should always remember to dress for success.  A new survey from Careerbuilder.com says that more professionally dressed employees are more likely to be promoted.  Read more about this survey by clicking here.
