WHAT'S THE CONNECTION BETWEEN CASUAL DRESS AND PRODUCTIVITY?

We have a fairly relaxed dress code at Goddiva. Our office is so comfortable that jeans and sandals are usual. As a mother of a five-year-old and a one-year-old, this is nothing short of a minor miracle. It means I can spend time with my family instead of ironing clothes every night. This morning's breakfast was embroidered on the blouse. It was dumped in the hamper rather than taking it to the dry cleaners.

I understand that a casual dress code can save time, as it saves me at least a couple of hours each week, but what are some other advantages of casual clothing for employees and employers? Does it have an impact on the bottom line?

Morale, economics, good self-expression, and productivity are advantages of casual clothing.

Employees in informal work situations may see an increase in morale since they are less concerned about their looks.

Economic: Working in a casual atmosphere is less expensive for employees since casual clothing is less expensive than professional clothing.

Positive Self-Expression: Casual attire can provide a positive message to employees that their opinions and self-expression are valued.

Productivity: Feeling at ease in casual attire can help reduce stress and boost focus, resulting in a more productive workplace.

Chris Bailey, creator of the "Productivity Project," explains it effectively in this extract from the New York Post...

"That's why he recommends deciding if you want to feel more confident or relaxed when dressing for productivity."

Wear what makes you feel. We have two factors at our disposal that allow us to be more productive: confidence and comfort. And in most cases, one will be more helpful than the other."

Casual dresses make workers think less abstractly and more concretely. It helps complete tasks focusing on details such as writing code or planning a product launch,". On the other hand, formal attire makes you feel more powerful because it's not something you'd wear out with your buddies. This makes you feel more detached, separated, and allows you to think at a higher level."

It is critical for any business to establish what is acceptable. Some companies require trousers and a sweater, while others want yoga pants and a large hoodie. Bottom line: how you dress and how productive you are is determined by your culture. It is up to your company to decide what is appropriate. Try to wear what makes you feel the most comfortable and secure inside the confines of your organisation, and you will be the most productive.
