Policy

The Veterinary Teaching Hospital’s (VTH) dress code policy is designed to help us all provide a consistent professional appearance to our clients and colleagues. Our appearance reflects on ourselves and the University of Illinois. This dress code applies to staff that receives an allotment of University of Illinois VTH apparel annually and hold a client-facing position at the hospital.

Guidelines

Dress Code

  1. Employees are expected to dress in business casual attire while representing the VTH Monday-Thursday. Jeans are acceptable on Fridays and for weekend hours.
  2. Upon passing probation, each permanent employee may order 5 items from the VTH Martin One Source catalog available on the intranet. This expense should not exceed $300. 
  3. At the beginning of each fiscal year (July 1st), each permanent employee will receive 1 item. The cost of this item is not to exceed $75.
  4. The items provided to employees are intended to be worn as part of a uniform, complimented with business casual attire. Should an employee choose to order items that are not ideal for working conditions, it becomes their responsibility to purchase additional items that meet this dress code. 
  5. All non-permanent employees will have access to apparel while working for the VTH.
  6. All items purchased by the VTH remain property of the University of Illinois and should be returned upon an employee’s departure with the VTH.
