//This article is all about the legal side of tattoos in the work place. This article states that it is legal to make employees cover up tattoos that are visible. This applies because it is part of the dress code and has been informed in legal cases. This is an article informing employers how to establish an appearance policy on tattoos, how to write them or how to update your current dress code rules to include tattoos. It also recommends that you set up a committee to talk about the consequences of banning all tattoos as opposed to letting some go such as religious tattoos//

//The problem that I would like to focus on is that tattoos despite being culturally accepted still have a negative effect on your job outlook. These articles have covered and supported my ideas. They show that people with tattoos have a tougher time getting a job then people without them. This I believe depends on the placement of tattoos and the nature of a tattoo. I would also like to dip into the legal side of tattoos as a possible discrimination.//
