NATS dress code?

[HM79]

In the US we had this battle over dress code during our "white book" period (5-10 years ago). It was a management tool to exert authority and control.

The reaction of the atco's was anger. As the local union rep. I wore the same two neon yellow polo shirts for the entire period of the contract. I always wanted them to see where I was. If you treat people with respect and professionalism they will react and dress as such. Uniforms in the work place are found in fast food restaurants and petroleum transfer stations and may not accurately reflect the effectiveness of the workforce ie a facade. In air traffic control facades are not necessary.
