    Post: Studio teachers dress code

    Posted by Brownie on 10/04/08

    "It makes sense that teachers dress the part as a matter of
    professionalism and to help reinforce the notion of
    respect." Obviously, the gym teacher and studio teachers
    have different dress needs from the math teacher. Studio
    teachers have a most physical job. Their responsibilities
    include any day to be able to lift heavy boxes, buckets of
    glazes and or wet clay, climb ladders, stand on chairs,
    bend over kilns, crawl on floor, scrub sinks and mop the
    floor. They are expected to be able to use a variety of
    tools, from hand tools to power tools. Therefore a dress
    code should allow for the safety of the teacher to lessen
    the chance of injury while on the job. They must wear
    material that is durable, stain resistant and protective of
    the skin. Dressed for safety means that consideration for
    not only chemicals that will be encountered on a daily
    basis but also must evaluate the appropriateness of the
    personal protective equipment that could be used such as
    goggles,masks or aprons. OSHA standard for basic safety
    dress is to wear denim or heavy cotton pants because these
    materials are best suited for shedding sparks, flying
    shards of metal, chips of wood, polishing compounds,
    ceramic dust and glazes. Good judgment and common sense has
    to used. Clothing should be compatible with a professional
    and safety conscious work environment and distinguishable
    from attire of students. No blue jeans. No t-shirts with
    logos. No high heels. Capri length pant, khakis, colored
    denim jeans, and sneakers are acceptable.
