'Downright offensive' Dorchester hotel memo sparks debate over 'discrimination' lawsuits

HR Grapevine recently reported on a leaked email which advised female staff on what they should and should not be doing whilst under employment at The Dorchester hotel. According to The Guardian, this memo could open the establishment up to lawsuits from current and former employees.

The list of do’s and don’ts for female workers included not having oily skin, undergoing full manicures and sporting a full face of make-up. Kiran Daurka, an employment lawyer at Leigh Day, explained to The Guardian why this list of suggestions could have a negative impact on the hotel.
