Bangalore: Now a dress code for Karnataka government employees -- pant and shirt/pyjama/kurta for men and saree or "chudidar" for women.
The state government has announced enforcement of a dress code for its officials and staff after some were found to wear clothes "that did not bring any repute" to the offices.
A September 12 government circular asked men staff to wear "decent" clothes like pant and shirt/pyjama/kurta and women staff saree or "chudidar".
It has been noticed that staff of the state secretariat, particularly the newly-joined ones, come to offices wearing dress which does not bring repute to the Secretariat.
The secretariat employees union general secretary had requested the government to implement a dress code so that the staff come to offices with "respectful clothes", the 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.
