Wearing trousers to work


Recommended Posts

I can remember when I started work in the 60s, trousers were not permitted for women, not were thick tights. Can anyone remember when the rule started to relax?

 

When I started work as a teacher(1972)female staff weren't allowed to wear trousers to work.That rule was relaxed around 1974 I think,but we were only allowed to wear trouser suits,no trousers and tops!Seems ridiculous now,but we didn't question it,it was just the way it was - mind you,male teachers, were expected to wear jackets and ties,the only exceptions being PE staff.Times change!
