Week 4 EOC: Physical Attractiveness

"An employer can no longer seek out preferred individuals based on non-job-related factors such as age, gender, or physical attractiveness." Although law prevents us from being hired based off of physical appearance, it is still common for employers to underhandedly hire based off of physical attractiveness. For instance, those with tattoos. I believe that companies have the right to include this as a reason not to hire.
Let's say this person is applying for a job at a high-end boutique or 9-5 office job. They're both environments that require a sense of professional appearance and dressing appropriate to the brand. "In many hospitality organizations, physical attractiveness is unquestionably a factor used to select employees in such positions as front-of-the-house food servers and hotel front desk agents."
For an employer to hire someone based off of appearance can only mean losing potentially good employees. It will be difficult for companies to rid of their biases in hiring, but I think there should be more of an open mind during the hiring process. "What the best of new employees can bring to the operation is a sincere commitment to serve guests, a willingness to learn, and the work ethic needed to perform as a valued employee"
