 There has been a lot of hullaballoo about how inexpedient it is to wear suits and ties to work. Some are of the opinion that business-casuals are suitable for most professions. Some others have said that the clothing required by most corporations are not suitable for the tropical climate. Yet others have gone as far as recommending traditional attires, because they consider suits and ties, an imposition of the West.
The first point to be made is that suits and ties are not for every profession. There are positions within the service industry that do not require the full business attire. Nevertheless, there should be dress norms in every corporation. Whether employees wear full business attire or business casual, there must be dos and don’ts to prevent a professional environment from looking like a madhouse. It is recommended that professionals who meet regularly with other professionals or clients should always be in full business attire. Many professionals have also complained about suits and ties not being suitable for the tropical climate. That argument might seem valid, but the truth is, wearing a suit is not any less comfortable during the summer in temperate regions. As a matter of fact, many temperate regions are hotter in the summer than the tropics. There are frequent heat waves, yet many professionals in these regions still wear their suits. Choosing a suit with the right fabric would certainly help in alleviating the discomfort that comes with the tropical heat. In addition, proper functioning air conditioners must be provided by corporations that require their employees to wear suits. |
