[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 4258802, member: 8481"] Because. legally, they can. Our opinion on beards does not matter, and it's not about not supporting your right to not shave. You do not have the right to not shave as long as you voluntarily continue to work for a company with a no beard policy. The law allows employers to set appearance guidelines, including grooming. UPS has chosen, legally, a policy of no beards, except where it may discriminate against a protected class, or if it is a medical issue. It may be an outdated policy, but it is still a legally binding policy. You can apply for a religious or medical waiver. Can it be changed? Yes. But it's not very high on the Union's priority list. The Union has bigger issues to deal with than to try and force UPS to allow beards. [/QUOTE]
