Zhejiang officers banned from beards, sexy dress (Shanghai Daily) Updated: 2006-06-01 09:06 Male officials from the Zhejiang Provincial
Communication Department are not allowed to have beards, as part of efforts to
enhance the image of government officials, said a Zhejiang newspaper Thursday.
The department issued some rules on officials' dressing code and
behaviors Wednesday.
Female officials are not allowed to wear back-baring clothes, to dress sexy or
wear slippers when they are on duty.
Male officials are also banned from being shirtless or from wearing only a
vest in the office.
Besides these, the rules stipulate that officials cannot make a commotion in
the office, or bring in their under aged children. Articles irrelevant to work
should not be put on desks.
The department said these rules are necessary to build up a more serious
government image. If officers dress too casually, it will be inharmonious with
the atmosphere and professionalism of a government department.
