it's all in the title. and thank you in advance.Are facial piercings completely forbidden in the food industry?
I would suggest that the answer will be yes if you are in food preparation. Usually only a plain wedding ring is allowed. This is obviously because the piercing ornament, earing etc may become detached and contaminate the food stuff.Are facial piercings completely forbidden in the food industry?
I think it depends on where you are going to work. I used to wait tables and there were a lot of people who had nose, tongue, and ear piercings. Now, I work in a bakery and deli preparing food and we aren't even allowed to wear our wedding bands- so facial piercings are definitely out of the question. You should check with the specific place where you want to work.
I am a former chef from Canada and I would say it is an individual thing, kitchen staff may not be the ones who do, and I worked in hotels with fine dining establishments, but the everyday IHOP, Denny's and T.G.I Friday's may not be a strict, I would not wear them to the interview, and would query them on dress policy, because going in with them after being hired, can get to fired just as fast.
I worked with a girl years ago who was a waitress in a private club she has a number of earrings but when she came in one Monday with both her eyebrows studded, a nose stud and 2, 1/2 '; pvc tubes in her ears they laid down the law, even hairstyles can be restricted in some places.
I think that you are allowed to have a small piercing in your nose, but anything else is a definite no.
