I just came back from a year off on disability and my center has a new manager. She has been getting on my case about my earrings. I have had past managers tell me to take them out and I've always managed to argue my way into keeping them by referring to the appearance guidelines that state both men and women are allowed to have a piercing in each earlobe no larger than 1/2 an inch. She seems intent on ignoring this fact and keeps telling me I have to take them out and she is going to "look into it". Does anyone have any experience in this subject or advice? Thanks.
undies,
You have every right to question the correct application of company policy and quidelines.
I encourage people not to pierce their bodies, however I respect this as a personal decision and I respect your decision to do this.
According to my understanding of UPS Appearance Guidelines and your description of your piercings, you are in violation of these guidelines.
It is your local managers responsibility to enforce the corporate guidelines of the company.
Thank you for posting this discussion thread.
Sincerely,
I
