This shows today's HR trend... I posted a case study on a real IR situation in my factory, expecting a healthy and long discussion, but not a single member replied. But on a Short Skirt issue discussion for 5 pages is disgusting... Well, I do not know why, but there are some popular members who are yet to join this discussion.

Hi,
Capris are too casual, and a skirt can be used if the attire needs to be more formal. A company requires professionals, not casual individuals. Your dressing sense provides a glimpse of your attitude. A casual approach can harm both yourself and your career growth.
Thank you.

Hi All,
I do not agree with Mr. Markand's statement, "Why not, in today's world everything is acceptable." We should think beyond the usual track. As representatives of our organization, we should always prioritize formal decency but in an innovative manner. In my opinion, casual dresses should only be permitted on Saturdays, but they should be in a unique style. Long skirts are acceptable, but Capris are not advisable.

There is no question of allowing or not allowing. Each individual employee is mature enough to decide on their dress and is also capable of interpreting the responses from colleagues. However, women employees in India tend to forget the basic rule, 'eat what you like and dress how others like.' Such employees can be given a gentle nudge by fellow workers. I don't think the company should be the arbiter of the dress sense of its employees.

Good morning, friends! I personally feel skirts are absolutely fine. However, it's the length that decides its acceptability factor. Our company has a "below the knee" acceptability factor. As for Capris, it's still a debate, even in the case of formal ones!

Dress habits vary from organization to organization, and the outlook also varies. It is a common notion that if an organization wants to look formal, they wish to see their employees come in formal wear, but for many others, it doesn't matter. Accomplishment of certain tasks requires a professional environment. Decide on your own. One can only suggest.
Wearing such dresses does not seem very professional at work. Such dress wear can be allowed in companies like advertising, fashion designing, garment factories, etc., but for industries such as IT, management, insurance, and pharmaceuticals, there are dress code policies that reflect the company's professionalism and brand in the market. If HR approves of the dress code, there should be no issues with skirts and capris. I hope I am not mistaken in taking this general view.

Dear Meenu,
I feel that wearing a dress or carrying a dress are two different aspects. Anyone can wear a skirt or capri, but how that person is carrying that dress is more important. It should be allowed on Saturdays.

Smart straight skirts and trousers are very professional in appearance. In the Indian context, elegant sarees and salwar kameez, which are not flashy, also give off a professional vibe. However, wearing ornate skirts with excessive flair is considered unprofessional, even on Saturdays.
Establishing a dress code is crucial, and it is the responsibility of the HR department to define a suitable dress code for the organization.
