Attitudes may change regarding workplace dress during these warm summer months, so be proactive, than reactive to help employees understand your dress code policies. Communicate specifics of the warm weather dress code without infringing on religious or cultural attire or workplace safety requirements. ## Considerations for a a warm weather dress code Will a relaxed dress code be implemented when weather becomes warmer, or during a set calendar period frame (such as Memorial Day through Labor Day)? Will it be incorporated all week or just on Fridays? What about when clients are visiting the office? These are all questions to be addressed in a dress code policy. Communicate with employees, perhaps in writing, addressing what attire is permitted and prohibited. Asking employees to sign off and acknowledge understanding of the policy may be a good business practice. ## Do you need to update your employee handbook?
