Can my male friend work at Fidelity Insurance with long hair?

His dad works there, and is trying to get him a job. Would he have to cut his long hair that he wears in a pony tail?Can my male friend work at Fidelity Insurance with long hair?
you can't take someone with a pony tail seriously. This is not a good thing when people are coming to you for insurance on their children.Can my male friend work at Fidelity Insurance with long hair?
Depends on what he's doing there. They won't make him cut his hair - but they're probably not going to offer him a salaried job, either. Hourly in the mail room, or doing janitorial . . . not a problem.





They won't make him cut his hair. But they won't offer him a choice position with long hair, either.
This is NOT an insurance question. Post it under ';employment.';
why dont you ask his dad





I am sure it depends both on his position and location
Try the ';careers'; category. Most companies have dress codes. Universal Studios, AMC Theatres and Disneyland have some of the strictest.
He can work there, Fidelity isn't a captive company. He only needs to contract with them.
Some companies have a ';dress code'; which means they may specifically state what you must wear and what is considered not appropriate.





When you go for a job interview, they always state to dress nicely, even if the job does not require it. So that means nice dress pants, shirt, maybe a tie, clean shaven etc. If this company does not like men wearing pony tails, they could automatically not hire him unless he cuts his hair and they can do that.





I worked at one company that had what we call ';jeans friday';, so on friday could wear jeans. But the dress code was specific about wearing tennis shoes. I wore one day and my boss brought to my attention that it was not according to the dress code and put me on notice, so I never wore tennis shoes again. That is a situation that you could state tennis shoes not acceptable, but that was in the HR benefits that was not allowed.





Does your friend really want this job? If so, I suggest he cut it, otherwise, he may not have any chance of getting into this company.





good luck
