Physical attractiveness can be a major factor for the companies branding, for example casinos on the Strip would want attractive women and men for front positions. Depending on the job, I will cover some controllable and uncontrollable situations and ways to manage them. Such issues like tattoos, hygiene, and scars. These are all things we come into contact to when looking for a possible job or position.
"Physical characteristics are defining traits or features about your body. The first thing you see when you look at someone could be their hair, clothes, nose, or figure."
For starters, tattoos could be appropriate if an employee was applying to be a tattoo artist at a local tattoo shop. In other cases, jobs tend to require a employee with ink to cover the tattoos. Same for scars, this would apply if the employee works closely with the customer and clients on a regular basis. Otherwise if an employer were to turn down an employee for scars or tattoo's I suggest looking into the companies policy on these subjects. So one can avoid applying to such a place who ave restrictions.
"There are actual companies who have manufactured and designed tattoo cover-ups for full sleeves."
As for hygiene, it can be a sensitive subject when confronting employee's with. This is usually brought up during orientation, Supervisors are the ones to go to if any question involving the topic of how an employee should look. Supervisors can give gentle reminders is to employee's to keep up with personal grooming. Some could say it is common sense to keep oneself in good condition.
"Dress to Impress."
These are some ideas and examples of handling these factors effectively in the workplace. Ways to fix and avoid certain situations without confrontation. Remember these are things covered during orientation, employee handbooks, and interview. But it is always good to ask questions with your supervisors on such topics. They are always a reliable source, and more informative.
