每個人都希望在工作中多掙些錢，不過如果能夠在日常上班時穿著牛仔褲，愿意放棄這筆錢的人卻驚人的多。

任仕達公司于上周二發布的一份新研究發現：三分之一的美國工人為了隨意著裝，愿意放棄薪水中額外的5000美元。更令人驚訝的發現是，同樣比例的受訪者（33%）十分討厭正式著裝，以至于他們在被迫遵循保守著裝要求時會選擇辭職或拒絕入職邀請。

任仕達美國的非技術人員首席執行官特拉西·菲亞特在聲明中表示：“工作的性質——何地、何時、如何完成工作——在過去幾年里發生了翻天覆地的變化，許多變化最終導致了職場正式性的減弱。讓員工有權每天穿上自己喜歡的衣服，展現他們的個性很棒，但雇主制定明確的指導，確保每個人都感到舒適同樣重要。”

調查得出的數據可能令人驚訝，不過工作環境寬松化的趨勢對企業而言并非新聞。過去幾年里，許多公司已經放松了對著裝的要求。高盛集團（Goldman Sachs）在2017年做出了相關調整，以提高對技術人才的吸引力。此前一年，摩根大通（J.P. Morgan Chase）表示將在大多數場合允許員工穿著商務休閑裝。而早在2013年，巴克萊銀行（Barclays）就開始在周五允許員工穿便裝上班。（財富中文網）

Everyone would love to make more money at work, but a surprisingly high number of people would forego that cash if they could wear jeans to work on a daily basis.

A new study from Randstad released last Tuesday finds that one-third of U.S. workers would forego an extra $5,000 in salary in favor of an informal dress code. Even more surprising was the finding that the same number of people—33%— are so opposed to formal workwear that they would quit their job or turn down an offer if they were forced to follow a conservative dress code.

“The nature of work — where, when and how it gets done — has changed dramatically over the past several years, and many of those changes have ultimately contributed to a less formal workplace,” said Traci Fiatte, CEO, non-technical staffing, Randstad US, in a statement. “It’s great to empower your employees to dress for their day, as well as show their personality, but it is equally important for employers to set some clear guidelines to ensure that everyone feels comfortable.”

The survey’s figures might be surprising, but the move toward a more relaxed work environment isn’t new news to corporations. Many companies have relaxed their dress codes in the past few years. Goldman Sachs made the change in 2017 to make jobs more attractive to tech talent. The year prior, J.P. Morgan Chase said it would allow employees to wear business-casual attire on most occasions. And in 2013, Barclays started to allow casual Fridays.
