Summer Dress Code Guidelines

Hi team,

As the weather warms up, we’re introducing relaxed summer dress code guidelines to help everyone stay comfortable while keeping our workplace professional, welcoming, and safe.

These guidelines are intended to offer a little more seasonal flexibility while making expectations clear for meetings, visitors, customer interactions, and shared workspaces.

What’s encouraged and allowed

Choose lighter, breathable fabrics that look neat and feel comfortable during warmer days.

Good options include short sleeves, summer dresses or skirts, neat casual tops, lightweight trousers.

Plan for the office climate

Air-conditioned areas can feel cooler than expected, so feel free to bring a light layer or cardigan if helpful.

If your role requires specific protective clothing, footwear, or safety gear, those requirements still take priority.

Shorts policy

Tailored or dress shorts are allowed during the summer period, provided they are an appropriate length, clean, and in good condition.

Please avoid athletic shorts, beach shorts, cut-offs, cycling shorts, or styles that are too casual for the workplace.

What still applies

Clothing should remain clean, neat, non-revealing, and suitable for a professional shared workplace.

Please dress appropriately for customer conversations, visitors, presentations, team events, and any scheduled meetings.

Please avoid

Flip-flops, swimwear, sheer or overly revealing items, offensive graphics or slogans, gym wear, beachwear, and unsafe footwear or clothing are not appropriate.

If you are unsure whether something fits the guidelines, choose the more polished option or check with your manager.

Use good judgment

Please dress for your day. Client meetings, presentations, site visits, events, and team-specific safety needs may call for more formal or role-appropriate clothing.

Managers may provide additional guidance for their teams based on business needs, customer-facing responsibilities, or work area requirements.

Questions?

If you have questions about the summer dress code, please speak with your manager or contact HR. Thanks for helping keep our workplace comfortable, professional, and welcoming this season.
