Sounds like a really good move which should be made universal. Didnt realize some workplaces made it mandatory but that could be my privilege talking. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oh, misread the title. At any rate, I don't have an issue with employers mandating that since it's just part of a dress code and, if you don't like it, a million other employers don't have the policy. It's unnecessary government intervention.

Zeus posted...Kineth posted...Good move. Those things break ankles. And that's the problem. If it was banning all women from wearing them then you could argue that it's a hazard to their health and it's being done for the public's welfare. However, that argument flies out the window if choice is still on the table and thus makes it an exceptionally stupid law. After all, it's not being done for health reasons if you're only blocking employers from requiring it. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ... Copied to Clipboard!

Zeus posted...Kineth posted...Zeus posted...Kineth posted...Good move. Those things break ankles. There is no logic to it. If it's a matter of choice, people have choice in terms of employers. If every work place required it, you could reasonably pass a law against it because there was no choice but to conform. However, when only a small number require it, there's no such impetus. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ... Copied to Clipboard!

But if a friend tells me she is forced to wear high heels at work but doesn't want to I'll wonder how tf is it legal to force her. i.e. nobody should be forced to wear them, but if one wants to personally then sure.

Zeus posted...Cartwheel_Kick posted...Zeus posted...Kineth posted...Zeus posted...Kineth posted...Good move. Those things break ankles. I view it as being no different than any other part of a dress code. Are you equally perplexed by how it's legal to force people to wear anything as a condition of employment? I've had friends who worked at places which forced them to wear sandals instead of sneakers. Should that be illegal? --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ... Copied to Clipboard!

I know women look good in them, but since it damages heavily the body, they should not be forced to wear them.

It's good that the requirement is illegal.
You should not make people do something bad for themselves for the purpose of aesthetics. And for those saying dress codes are fine, men should be forced to wear high heels too if its a "uni" form. If not, then the purpose is of requiring only women to do it is obvious, and that's something I'm fine with being banned ... Copied to Clipboard!

Zeus posted...people have choice in terms of employers Given that professional and unprofessional clothing are somewhat arbitrary choices, I'm not sure that's really relevant. Plus, in the case of dress codes, there's usually a preferred look where a tux might be far fancier than anything worn in an office and still not be acceptable in the dress code. Sir Will posted... Zeus posted...Oh, misread the title. At any rate, I don't have an issue with employers mandating that since it's just part of a dress code and, if you don't like it, a million other employers don't have the policy. It's unnecessary government intervention. If it was actually considered harmful by the government, it would be banned or restricted across the population. Likewise, if you're at an interview and the employer mentions that something is a condition of employment, you're free to walk out from that interview. Other people, who either like or are fine with the provision, will happily do the job. The only time when you actually need government is when something is a universal standard where you're reversing an entire industry rather than an employer. Fam_Fam posted...

Good. Requiring high heels is bullshit. There's plenty of perfectly nice and professional looking flat shoes available. Women shouldn't have to fuck up their feet and backs to live up to an outmoded standard of what's professional.
