Dress, grooming, and personal cleanliness standards contribute to the morale of all employees and affect the business image Fortune International Group presents to the community.
During business hours or when representing Fortune International Group you are expected to present a clean, neat, and tasteful appearance. You should dress and groom yourself according to the requirements of your position and accepted social standards.
Your supervisor or department head is responsible for establishing a reasonable dress code appropriate to the job you perform. If your supervisor feels your personal appearance is inappropriate, you may be asked to leave the workplace until you are properly dressed or groomed. Under such circumstance, you will not be compensated for the time away from work. Consult your supervisor if you have questions as to what constitutes appropriate appearance. Where necessary, reasonable accommodations may be made to a person with a disability.
Without unduly restricting individual tastes, the following personal appearance guidelines should be followed:
• Shoes must provide safe, secure footing, and offer protection against hazards. No flip flops allowed.
• Canvas or athletic type shoes are not appropriate professional attire for office employees.
• Tank tops, tube or halter tops, shorts or jeans may not be worn under any circumstances.
• Mustaches and beards must be clean, well-trimmed, and neat.
• Hairstyles are expected to be in good taste.
• Unnaturally colored hair and extreme hairstyles, such as spiked hair and shaved heads, do not present an appropriate professional appearance.
• Long hairstyles should be worn with hair pulled back off the face and neck to avoid interfering with job performance.
• Excessive makeup is not permitted.
• Offensive body odor and poor personal hygiene is not professional acceptable.
• Perfume, cologne, and aftershave lotion should be used moderately or avoided altogether, as some individuals may be sensitive to strong fragrances.
• Jewelry should not be functionally restrictive, dangerous to job performance, or excessive.

• Multiple ear piercings (more than one ring in each ear) are not professionally appropriate and must not be worn during business hours.
