Hair:
Employees should choose hairstyles that compliment interactions with our Guests. Hairstyles and colors should be natural and not extreme. It's important that Guests and others you interact with can see your face, especially your smile. Please ensure hair is away from your face using hair clips, hair ties or bands. Hair accessories should be complementary to the uniform. Food Service employees must comply with the Department of Health regulations.
Sideburns should be straight, neatly trimmed, and may extend to the end of the earlobe. Beards, mustaches, and goatees are allowed; however, they must be neatly trimmed and not longer than one inch. An established beard is an intentionally grown beard, not several days of not shaving. Other than established beards, mustache and goatees, you are expected to be cleanly shaven every work day. An established beard must not have any empty spaces between the sideburns, mustache or goatee.
Special note: Employees required to wear respirators must meet fit-test requirements that may require a clean-shaven face.
Jewelry:
Please select tasteful and appropriate jewelry to wear at work. Jewelry should be both safe and appropriate for your work environment. Food Service employees must comply with Department of Health regulations.
You may wear up to three earrings per ear. Earrings may not exceed two inches in length or diameter. Stud earrings can be no larger than ¼ inch in diameter.
You may wear one small nose stud no bigger than 2mm. No other visible pierced jewelry or body adornment is allowed. You may wear plugs, no tunnels or tapers, that are a plain, solid color, and do not exceed ¼ inch in diameter.
Tattoos:
Tattoos are not permitted if visible when wearing a company-issued uniform or when wearing professional dress. You cannot cover visible tattoos with bandages, jewelry or makeup. Long sleeves that are solid black or white in color are permitted for uniformed employees.
