Dress Codes in Multi National Companies (MNC)

Dress code for students is ok but empolyee i feel it is bit looks childish as in factory union people have uniform same manner

I don't think this is childish. Actually this is good. Whole world can identify the employees looking at their dress code. It actually looks decent, smart and unique. After all we go to office for doing our job . Hence uniform will make them look similar.

In some work dress code is must and some special dress are given.For ex welding job.
Again you are servicing in a corporate office and you wear a zigzag shirt this is odd looking .
So some company apply dress code and I think nothing wrong in it.

Every MNC is following its own dress codes. what is your opinion on this?

They dont have a uniform dress code but a formal dress code where the employees are supposed to wear formal shirt,trousers ,tie and shoes on most days except Fridays when they can wear casual dresses including jeans ...This is what Infosys employees wear , am not sure if the same rule applies to other MNCs as well ! I think it is good have some kind of dress code so that the y all look presentable and dignified ..

Dress code is part of discipline. This enables easy identification. Customers will have no difficulty in identifying employees.

Most of the MNCs have made formals clothing essential. It gives a professional appearance to the staff/employees in an organisation.

I remember when I used to work grave-yard shifts for a US client, we had relaxation in dress code and could wear casuals every day (night) but then many started misusing it and started wearing shorts, Bermudas etc.with wrinkled T's and some girls used to be so casual, that they used to apply face-masks on their faces while working. One night, a CEO happened to walk in and he was totally flabbergasted and the very next day, a strict dress code was inflicted on us too!!! :laugh:

Actually, wearing a proper dress for work gives us a sense of responsibility and seriousness to work. Casual dresses while working make us casual in work approach as well. So a formal dress code is a must for all!

I work in a MNC company and we have a dress code and I never felt it to be wrong as I feel uniformity among the employees is essential. :)

Dress code should there in MNC. It denotes the Discipline.

Are shoes without lace considered formal or informal. Is it okay to come to office with laced or without lace shoes?

LOL, this still happens in some small companies where they take it too easy...but I too feel that it is better to have a dress code so that everyone looks professional and presentable, now even in private banks they follow a dress code more like a uniform dress code ...

I think that in a MNC, we should look professional and to look that we should have dress code.

Focusing too much on dresscode really creates the problems.

There is nothing like too much or too less in matter of dress code. If dress code is prescribed, you must adhere to that. There can be no problem other than that you wish to wear casuals or what you like. Dress code means discipline that must be enforced.

You either have a dress code which you follow strictly or you don't have a dress code - there is no question of too much or too little about it. Once you decide to have a dress code you have to follow it and see that everyone follows it otherwise it defeats the very purpose for which it was implemented in the first place ...

A dress code minimizes the problems. How does it create problems ? Please elaborate a little for us.

I think there could be some sort of relaxtion in dress code in companies.

You cant have it both ways, either you have a dress code or you don't have... In many companies they are relaxed during weekends - first of all most MNCs work only 5 days but many still go and work during weekends and they don't need to wear uniforms..

Uniform creates an identity. There is nothing wrong having a dress code

I am not talking about uniforms. Talking about dress codes. Monday - Friday, Full Formals. Weekends - Semi Formals (Casual with shoes). It is horrible.
