As of June 2, we are updating our image policy to allow facial hair consisting of evenly cut, well-groomed full beards, goatees and mustaches that are closely shaped to the face – no more than 1/2 inch/18 mm beard trimmer attachment length are acceptable. Beards and goatees are only permitted for hourly and mileage associates in the field. This includes driving, dock and maintenance associates.
I want to make it clear that we are in no way lowering our image standards. We continue to stand on our principles of associate cleanliness, neatness and professionalism. This includes everything from head to toe, such as wearing proper uniform attire, shoes and accessories, as well as how we keep our hair and facial hair.
Finally, this change points to how we must continue to find ways to adapt to changes in the marketplace that can impact Our Customers, Our Associates and Our Future. Armed with more quality associates, we will be better prepared to serve our customers now and in the future.
