CASE: Dress Code Policy – Gender Discrimination (Ch. 17): Dress for Success, Inc.

FACTS: Dress for Success, Inc., had policy requiring male salespersons wear business attire, including dress pants, button-down shirt, and a tie. The company required female salespersons to wear a smock (a light, loose garment worn for protection of clothing while working) in order for clients to identify them easily. Sharon Riddle and other female salespersons refused to wear a smock. They showed up to work wearing business attire instead, and Dress for Success suspended them. After multiple suspensions, the female associates were fired for violating Dress for Success’ dress code policy. All other employment conditions, including wages, working hours, and benefits, were equal for male and female associates.

(Minus -10 points if you do not type your text page numbers at the end or within the Legal Reasons). You must include ‘Bibliography’ support at the end of the Legal Reasons– document what you used (even if it was just our textbook); otherwise, it’s plagiarism! The Legal Reasons Section is a major part of the case assignment. A heavy deduction of points would occur for a poorly written and ‘short’ analysis of the legal reasons. Although there is no set requirement for length, this section is the bulk of the assignment. Generally a minimum of 2 to 3 paragraphs (again, minimum) is needed in order to justify your decision.
