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

In modern society, the freedom of clothing has been becoming being accepted at

work

. While there is a belief at the organisation level that employees should dress smartly, others think that the quality of

work

outweighs their

appearance

. It is clear that

although

the

appearance

may not affect their performance, employees need to wear neat

clothes

when they

work

. The

first

aspect to point out is that wearing adequate

clothes

can give

customers

a good impression. Most workers need to meet their

customers

at some point and the

first

impression from the

customers

has a great impact on their businesses.

For instance

, if a doctor's

appearance

was unkempt, patients would not feel comfortable because it might give them a negative image in terms of hygienic.

This

would affect the doctor's reputation even though they have excellent skills in surgery.

However

, it could be suggested that one's knowledge and experience of their job cannot be judged by their

appearance

.

For example

, teachers do not have their uniforms at

work

,

thus

, they wear their ordinary

clothes

. Students tend to see their abilities of coaching by their knowledge rather than their

appearance

.

Thus

, some may state that the quality of

work

is above

appearance

. To conclude, despite the fact that employees cannot be judged their performance by their

appearance

, the impressions from their

customers

have a great impact on their businesses in both positive and negative manners.

Therefore

, workers should wear adequate

clothes

at

work

.
