Bangalore: Karnataka government has announced enforcement of a dress code for its employees after some of them were found to wear clothes "that did not bring any repute" to the offices.
According to the new dress code, male employees will have to wear pant and shirt/pyjama/kurta and women are asked to wear saree or "chudidar".
The secretariat employees' union general secretary had requested the government to implement a dress code so that the employees come to offices with "respectful clothes", the September 12 circular said.
Government drivers and "D" group staff already have uniforms and they have been asked wear them without fail while coming to office.
It is the government's desire that other officials and staff on government service in the state don't wear clothes that bring it disrepute and put on only "decent" dress while coming to office, the circular issued by the Department of Personnel and Administrative Reforms said.
