Well they would have to cater for all tastes. I was riping the peagloss out of the whole situation by refering to fishnet tights.

Re: Silly Sock - NHS

I think the local NHS trust could save an awful lot of money by getting rid of some of these managers who have nothing better to do than conjure up silly rules like this. Don't tell me thay are going to have a morning dress parade where someone in authority will inspect the workforce for these banned garments.......and if they want staff to wear particular styles of socks then they should be provided as part of the uniform.
I would be far more inclined to agree that no-one should leave the building in uniform unless they have a full length coat to cover up all of the said uniform. In fact when I was employed by this trust...THAT was uniform policy...though I can't say it was ever upheld.
If they are going to discipline members of staff who do not follow the policy, they will soon have their debt problem solved...they will have no nurses to worry about.

Question Re: Silly Sock - NHS

I see that the ‘socks’ issue has escalated to no black underwear.

Re: Silly Sock - NHS

What has underwear got to do with anything? Are they going to start doing striptease acts for the patients now?

Re: Silly Sock - NHS

From what I can gather about the underwear issue is that underwear should not be obviously visible through your uniform, hence no black bras with white uniforms. To be honest that's fair enough, black bras can look trashy under white clothing IMO

Tattoos and piercings must be covered up by your clothing. The policy does not say that you cannot have tattoos and piercings, just that they should not be visible. Again, fair enough. Many employers have those same dress codes.

The socks thing is just plain ridiculous. I see no relationship between how good a doctor or nurse is and the socks they wear. I did hear a rumour that the sock issue was based on some evidence from one of these useless studies which showed that wearers of novelty socks aren't as productive as their more seriously socked counterparts. Whoever did this alleged study has probably wasted a couple of years of their time, lots of someone else's money and is probably a novelty sock wearing layabout who wishes to stay in Uni all of their life instead of getting a real job..

Well said lettie.

It amazes me, that these studies & meeting still continue. The amount of time & money that is being wasted is ridiculous.
