Tattoos in the workplace.

My major is human resources and a topic we have discussed is tattoos in the workplace. Tattoos have been an on going debate. Should people be allowed to show them, or should they not. Should a worker in a hotel who works at the front desk not be allowed to show their tattoos, and someone who works in the kitchen and is not seen by any of the guests be able to show off their tattoos.Issues raised by tattoos can get more complicated when it comes to gender and religion. Employers need to be aware of these issues before writing and enforcing policies that don't allow you to show your tattoos.

Tattoos will continue to be an on going debate, a lot of the tattoo questions can be answered with "It depends." We continue to ponder whether it is acceptable or not.
