Legality of calling prosthetic limbs unprofessional or prohibiting an employee from "showing" a prosthetic or it's outline under the dress code? (Virgina) (self.legaladvice)

legal_throwaway_803 が 投稿

I have a question about if the following is legal to put in a dress code for a company that does office based work (so no safety concerns because it's not a warehouse or factory):

No employee shall be permitted to have any prosthetic limbs visible. Said employee's must wear closed shoes and pants with a wide leg so as not to render a prosthetic limb or its outline visible (no skirts are permitted). In the case of a prosthetic arm or hand, employees shall ensure that their sleeves are long enough and wide enough so as not to show the prosthesis or its outline. Any visible prosthetic or outline will be condsidered as unprofessional dress and will result in dicipline up to and including dismissal, without a warning being required.

Someone has worked there for 18 months and wears skirts every day. She has a prosthetic leg. The new company president authroized this addition to the dress code and the board is aware. Would it be legal for the company to fire her if she wore a skirt tomorrow and her prosthetic leg was showing? This occurred in the state of Virginia.

EDIT: Apologies if the formatting is weird or if this posts more than once. I'm on mobile and my connection is spotty right now)

Yeah, no. This is a hall of fame level stupid decision. Plaintiff's attorneys would line up around the block for the opportunity to represent this woman. If this business relied in any way on working with the public their reputation would go up in smoke, and they'd be subject to discipline by the EEOC.

Essentially this policy is: "People with disabilities, specifically disabilities that are associated with recent military service, are icky and we don't want to see them. We'd also like our black employees to wear a lot of caked on white makeup if possible so they look less black."

[–]legal_throwaway_803[S] 215ポイント216ポイント  (39子コメント)

Funny you should say that because the prosthetic (leg below the knee) is the result of military service and the new owner and president say that it makes them uncomfortable.

This may have been the stupidest employer to come through this sub. Disabled and a veteran? In Virginia? Even if legal, that's asking to go out of business.

EDIT: I vote OP follows the dress code :p show up without the prosthetic. Stump it up in a business meeting, explain she isn't allowed a prosthetic

[–]here-we-stand 83ポイント84ポイント  (2子コメント)

Stump it up in a business meeting, explain she isn't allowed a prosthetic

Real nonchalantly, like she's just making small talk: "Yeah, y'know we can't display prostheses here, so I figured it'd be easier to just take it off than modify my clothes or something."

Would be especially effective if the meeting involves people from outside the company.

I almost wore a skirt to work once just as a protest for the men's dress code... I can't imagine what I'd do if I were in this employee's situation. So many options... Maybe craft your own prosthetic with lots of bedazzling and sparkles so that it is not offensive to the boss? :D

[–]ZanctmaoQuality Contributor 70ポイント71ポイント  (4子コメント)

So they'd get veterans groups protesting them as well. That's a "winning" strategy for sure. The new boss and owner need to drop $2k in a consult with an employment lawyer. When he stops laughing, he'll tell them in no uncertain terms that this is folly of the highest order. Then the lawyer will gleefully tell his staff about the company that just came to him because they will be the source of a ton of business.

[–]sloppyjoes7 12ポイント13ポイント  (2子コメント)

I have you tagged as an actual lawyer. So I believe that you're right that the employer is acting stupidly.

But what can OP reasonably do in this situation? Is there any advice he can give the prosthetic-wearing woman?

[–]ZanctmaoQuality Contributor 30ポイント31ポイント  (0子コメント)

It is unclear in what position OP is: fellow worker, concerned manager, troll(?), secretary with access to information ... who knows. What they can or cannot do entirely depends on their relationship with the young woman, the boss, and the company. If OP wants to watch the world burn, they could just let this happen and get out the popcorn.

That's part of the problem with this post.

It doesn't work that way. What would happen, theoretically, is that she'd continue to wear skirts until she was fired. Then file a lawsuit. The lawsuit would take give or take two years. Then she'd get back wages, emotional damages, and some other crap, plus they'd be forced to offer her her old job back.

Not a life changing windfall, but enough to be notable.

Was she detaching it and beating people with it? Was she storing food in it, and it was getting moldy? Perhaps housing a family of squirrels? Does it make cool (potentially annoying to non-fun people) noises like transformer robots?

This is such an absurd rule to be created out of the blue, there must be some backstory to it.

The irony is that if they know this, they can just change the policy and fire her at-will. If she brings it up, then that would look like retaliation, but a good mediocre lawyer could easily enable the president to discriminate against her if he does it "correctly."

[–]JadieRose 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

It makes them uncomfortable? I can't even. I almost hope they DO try to fire her so she can sue the pants off them (pun intended) but it would be much smarter to tell them that their dress code policy is discriminatory and a violation of the EEO.

[–]Draqur 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

I thought it was going to be a ridiculous answer, maybe something along the lines of their religion not believing people should be allowed to use prosthetic limbs. But because it "makes them uncomfortable?"

That's even more ridiculous than anything I imagined.

Is this person wearing skirts by any chance a man? (or formerly a man?)

I can not see how a sane person, in a position of power, can believe that this is a good decision. ESPECIALLY considering they're a disabled military vet. Please OP, don't say anything yet. Let this new rule of theirs go in to effect. Let them say something to your co-worker. Unless of course, you think your co-worker would be hurt in such a way that it wouldn't be worth it.

Make sure your popcorn stash is full, and since this is a very, very rare occasion that you may never witness again, go ahead and put on some extra butter, and even salt.

Well that's just a bunch of bull hooey, is what that is.

It took me a long time to get to your second paragraph because I was imagining just that (and giggling). "Imma kick you in da head!" And then she rips off the leg and hits her coworker upside the head with it.

[–]legal_throwaway_803[S] 30ポイント31ポイント  (3子コメント)

Only for people with prothestic limbs. The rest of the dress code says that skirts and dresses may be worn so long as they are just above the knee, short sleeved collared shirts may be worn with a tie as well as sleeveless blouses and dresses, as long as in all cases a jacket is on hand for meetings with clients.

Yep, you have to allow people to modify fasteners to require less dexterity or allow a wheelchair user to wear a less tailored version if it's getting hung up in the back or is too hot for them. But that's totally different, and it would be the employee asking for an accommodation.

[–]honkhonkbeepbeeep 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

I wonder if it still could potentially be an ADA issue though actually. My relative with a prosthetic leg prefers to roll her pantleg up (or wear shorts or skirts) because it's apparently annoying and harder to figure out where the leg is when clothing is pulling at it and getting hung up on it. This doesn't seem any different aesthetically in the workplace than my former colleague who preferred to not use a leg prosthesis and who used crutches instead. He'd pin the pantleg on the side where he was born without a lower leg. It was obvious that dude had a limb difference, and he wasn't doing anything immodest. This workplace required long pants. No one cared because they weren't assholes.

Yes, but you can't just say "my tattoo is bitchin'" and assume it is. You have to apply for a Bitchin' Permit with the Office of Cool Regulation and Protection where it is judged by a panel of judges and given a score on the Fonze Scale. If it receives 80/100 Fonzies than it is declared Officially Bitchin'. However, a simple Eagle isn't usually enough. It needs on have some skulls and monster trucks too.
