Clothing+Safety

**You Jin**

Clothing safety are easy things to follow and really important when we're working in the theater. If you not follow the directions, you can be in danger, so please read carefully these directions and follow them. Here are some clothing safety...

__**CLOTHING**__ 1. You are being hired to do heavy, dirty work--NO FASHION PLATES ALLOWED!! Wear something protective, yet loose enough to allow you to move freely. Don't wear valuable clothing as you will often get very dirty, and may even tear your clothing. Absolutely no profanity/racist material on clothing.

2. Layering clothing is important during the winter. It may be -20 degrees while unloading trucks and 70 degrees after the doors are closed! In hot weather, shorts and brief tops are worn at your own risk. Remember that there are lots of rough edges and sharp corners just waiting for you.

3.If you are working on the stage during a performance, wear ALL dark clothing, preferably black. Wear dark brown or dark blue as a last resort. If you will be seen by the audience, wear respectable attire.

4. Wear closed-toe, low-heel shoes. No open-toed shoes or shoes with high heels. Tennis shoes are OK, boots are preferred.

5.You are strongly advised to wear ear plugs at rock concerts. They are available aif you ask your steward.

6. Do not wear noisy shoes when you are working on the stage during a performance so the audience will not hear you. . __**JEWELRY/HAIR**__ 1. **NO** dangle style earrings, necklaces, bracelets. Avoid rings whenever possible. (Jewelry must be removed before operating any machinery.)

2. Restrain long hair with a ponytail, braid or bandana. (Long hair must be tied up away from the face.)

3. Do not wear noisy jewelry when you are working on the stage during a performance because the audience might hear you while they are watching.
