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.

When Apple's CEO Steve Job did his product launch presentations, black tees and jeans were what he wore. Many companies nowadays value employees' competency higher than image, while some companies still have policies to make sure their staffs

dress

decently.

This

essay will discuss both views and explain companies ought to allow flexibility for staffs to

dress

what they think is appropriate. Many believe that

first

impression is important for building relationships. What you

dress

reflect your personality and how do you evaluate the people you meet and the activities you engage. In fact, if you work in a conventional customer service environment, you should

dress

nicely, at least more decent than your customers do, in order to show your respect for them. A receptionist of a company,

for example

, often is the

first

person that visitors meet and talk with when they visit the company. A nicely dressed receptionist de

Therefore

, it is understandable why many companies have rules of

dress

for staffs to follow.

On the other hand

, some companies, particularly those feature innovations, do not force their staffs to

dress

in a certain way.

Instead

, workers are allowed to choose how to

dress

according to their preference, mood and personality. The reason is that these companies believe less constrains will result in more creativities.

or project an image like bankers, accountants or hotel managers: men always wear suits, women always in high heels. In contrary, many staffs working for tech companies wearing jeans and sneakers, and even shorts in summer. Obviously, creativities and skills are valued relevantly higher than appearance in these companies. To conclude, I believe the performance of staffs are more important than what they wear during working hours.

Therefore

, I think companies should set some guidelines of

code according to their business and staffs' role nature. Allowing some flexibility for staffs to choose what to wear in the workplace, is one of many ways to promote pleasant working ambience. Ultimately, elevates staffs' creativities and productivities which benefit their companies.
