“When you go to a private hospital, not a single employee is seen without uniform, while in a government hospital, it is difficult to differentiate between a patient and an employee,” Vij said, adding that the dress code will improve the functioning of the hospital.
The minister said that a hospital requires some code and conduct from its employees and a dress code is an essential component which gives the organisation a “professional touch.” “A well-followed dress code policy in a hospital not only gives an employee his professional image but also presents an elegant image of an organisation among the public. The purpose of the dress code policy is to maintain discipline, uniformity and equality among staff,” he said.
