Shocking dress code demands found by parliamentary report

Some of the most sexist demands that the parliamentary reports have found:

1. Only being allowed to wear flat shoes after an ankle sprain – this employee had previously asked to wear flat-shoes but was met with a quip that she’d have time to rest her feet if she was unemployed.

2. The College of Podiatry found that women who wore high heels for a long period of time had reduced balance, reduced ankle flexion and weaker muscle power in their calves.

3. Demands for dying hair blonde, wearing make-up and short skirts - making female employees feel sexualised.
