Policy

Employees who are employed in departments with a dress code are required to adhere to that code. Supervisors will review dress code requirements with candidates prior to hiring. Departmental expectations will not conflict with applicable federal or local statutes, including those prohibiting discrimination based any characteristic protected by law.
