This question is for any institution or office whose employees are in
direct contact with the public (e.g., library, research room, or
government office) and who also need to climb step stools and lift heavy
books as part of their job responsibilities...

Does anyone have a dress code in place for men and women who work in
this kind of environment?

Right now, my staff has occasionally been called to task for
"inappropriate wear" by my supervisors at times when I, frankly, see
nothing "inappropriate."  I have requested that HR look into
establishing a dress code policy in City Hall to avoid situations where
employees are criticized for something where no guidance has been
provided.  We will be meeting to discuss this next week.

Any examples or samples of dress code policies forwarded in advance of
that meeting would be most welcomed.

Thank you.
