My company has a policy of not hiring people with visible tattoos or piercings, but I'm not sure if this is legal. How can I legally discriminate against applicants who have visible tattoos or piercings?

Sorry, the assistant cannot legally advise on this as it is a complex and situational area of employment law. We suggest researching regional guidelines and consulting with an attorney if needed.

There is no law that prevents employers from having a policy of not hiring people with visible tattoos or piercings. An employer can legally make this choice as long as the policy isn't due to an applicant's religion, race, age, sex, or any other form of discrimination. The legality ultimately depends on what the policy states and whether it's justified in some way.
