DRESS CODE

(EXCERPTED FROM THE CMOP EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK)

The following information is intended to serve as a guide to help define appropriate casual wear for all employees at CMOP.

Our primary objective is to have employees project a professional image while taking advantage of more casual and relaxed fashions. Casual dress offers a welcome alternative to the formality of typical business attire. However not all casual clothing is appropriate for CMOP. Casual wear means clean, neat, clothing. It is never appropriate to wear stained, wrinkled, frayed or revealing clothing to the workplace. If you are considering wearing something and you are not sure if it is acceptable, choose something else or inquire first.

Listed below is a general overview of acceptable casual wear as well as a listing of some of the more common items that are not appropriate for CMOP. Obviously, neither group is intended to be all inclusive. Rather these items should help set the general parameters for proper casual business wear and allow you to make intelligent judgements about items that are not specifically addressed.

Examples of acceptable casual business wear include:

• Slacks

• Jeans

• Shorts

• Casual dresses and skirts

• Casual shirts and blouses

• Golf shirts

• Sweaters

• T-Shirts

• Sweatshirts

• Loafers

• Deck shoes

• Boots

Examples of inappropriate clothing items that should not be worn on casual days include:

• Short shorts

• Spandex or other form fitting pants

• Miniskirts

• Spaghetti-strap dresses

• T-shirts or sweatshirts with offensive messages or images

• Tank-tops

• Halter tops

• Visible undergarments

• Slippers

• Thong slippers

• Hats

• Hoods

• Scarves
