Labour Court leaves Arnotts Limited dress code recommendation in place

In 2004, the Labour Court left in place a Rights Commissioner recommendation that two Arnotts Limited workers comply with the company’s dress code. The decision was dated 15 December 2004. The workers, senior sales staff in the Furniture Department, were represented by Mandate. The union argued that their contracts did not specify the black-and-white corporate colours. The company said staff had chosen the colours and that employees bought dress-code clothing at discount rates.
