Some organisations believe that their employees should dress smartly. Others value quality of work above appearance. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Each workplace has its own values. While some prefer well-dressed employees, others prefer their performance at
work
.
This
essay will show why both points of view exist and, in the end, why I think the quality of
work
should prevail over appearance. The way you dress can have a huge

. Two relevant examples will be studied.
First
of all, if you enter a beauty salon
for instance
, you expect to be welcomed by people who spend time taking care of themselves.
Otherwise it

could have a negative impact on the company’s image in the long term.
Secondly
, people who represent an institution must set an example and be looked up to, especially if their image is to be broadcasted and viewed by many other countries.
However
, some jobs do not require any contact between employees and customers,
such
as working in a call centre. When you can only be heard but not seen, the way you dress is no longer critical for
work
.
Moreover
, even when your job requires you to meet people, as in a doctor-patient situation, there is no doubt that all parties will prefer a professional doctor over a well-dressed doctor. In conclusion, as long as the way you dress does not harm the organisation, the performance of your
work
should be highlighted. Whenever possible, the uniform could be an answer to
this
dilemma for some organisations, as it ensures the
presentability
of a person while focusing on his or her performance.
