COMMENTAIRE DE RAEL :
Si la conscientisation est souhaitable, toute normalisation qui ne respecte pas la liberté individuelle, tant pour la coiffure que pour les tenues vestimentaires, est totalement inacceptable. Liberté !
Liberia’s Ministry of Finance has publicly ordered its security guards to restrict any female employee with “unnatural hair” or any colour extensions from entering the office complex effect from October 1, 2018.
While delivering the order, the Minister, Mr. Samuel D. Tweah says any employee who violates this policy will not be allowed into the office and that person’s salary would be reduced by the number of days she would choose not to come to work. This is because that person not being in office would be treated as an unauthorized absence.
A top management staff backed the action saying that the minister is acting within the confides of the law according to the MFDP employee handbook section 7.4 titled, “Personal Appearance,” line three states: “Unnatural colored hair (Green, Pink etc.) and extreme hairstyles such as spiked hair do not present an appropriate professional experience.”
