FM leadership shares updated FM general dress code and standard regarding uniforms

As part of the ongoing FM apparel review process, Facilities Management leadership recently shared the updated FM General Dress Code and Apparel Standard (requires on Grounds network or VPN to access and UVA login).
“Facilities Management provides direct services to University students, faculty, staff, patients, and visitors daily. Part of our success is the way that we present ourselves as a professional organization,” according to the email.
The updated standards refer to both general dress code and approved apparel (also known as uniforms), providing a framework for all Facilities Management employees to follow. Since employees are engaged in a wide variety of work situations and conditions, supervisors and managers are in the best position to resolve apparel matters and an employee who is unsure of what is appropriate should check with their manager or supervisor for guidance.
The FM General Dress Code and Apparel Standard webpage also includes the standards as Word documents in English, Spanish, French, Swahili and Nepali.
