If your company doesn’t already have a casual dress day, why not initiate one? According to a recent survey by the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM), 大多数公司允许每周有一天或更多的便装日. Having the freedom to dress down a little adds to employee morale without costing a dime, 但一定要传达你的政策,以防止混淆. 帮助你制定商务休闲装政策, view SHRM’s Business Attire Policy to see basic guidelines for appropriate workplace attire.

Our employees told us it was important to them and it’s a no-cost way to increase employee morale with a huge upside. As long as you clearly communicate the guidelines, there’s very little downside. This policy has also helped us attract new talent as most employees now expect a casual dress environment as more and more companies head in that direction.
