Abstract

Uniform design is an overall scheme which includes four design factors: appearance, function, character and comfort. To what extent do these elements used in the design of mandatory uniforms predict an employee's attitude toward his/her job? Will an employee wearing a lime green polyester uniform that fits poorly and is overly hot feel differently about his job than one wearing a finely tailored, naturally fibered uniform?;An examination of these elements will be conducted as well as an investigation of degree of guest interaction to determine the effect of mandatory uniforms on the attitude toward the job of the hospitality employees who wear the uniforms.
