Team Member Dress & Personal Appearance

Southwest Care Center requires that all team members dress neatly and appropriately and that they maintain adequate personal hygiene at all times. Team members must maintain a professional image not only when representing the organization in clinic but also at business related events within the community. 

General Guidelines
The organization urges employees to use common sense and sound judgment when it comes to selecting their work attire. When in doubt, defer to the business casual which should be considered the general dress code for the organization. To assist you, here are a few broad guidelines to follow:

​

• All clothing should be clean, ironed and in good shape. Refrain from wearing clothes that have tears, rips or holes, or may be considered offensive to others.

• All employees should maintain an acceptable level of bodily hygiene to ensure that interactions with other staff and clients remain positive and pleasant.

• Work clothes should be professional, which means that they should not be too revealing or casual. No athletic wear will be considered acceptable.

​

Accommodation
If the dress code policy contradicts the rules of your faith or is offensive to you in any way, please contact human resources.

 

Team members should contact their supervisor for specific information regarding acceptable attire for their position. If team members report to work dressed or groomed inappropriately, they may be prevented from working until they return to work well-groomed and wearing the proper attire.
