Starbucks: Nail Polish, Gels, and Acrylic Nails
Not Allowed for Food Safety Reasons
Starbucks has a strict policy against employees wearing nail polish, gels, or acrylic nails due to food safety concerns.
The company believes that these types of nail treatments could chip or break off into food or drinks, posing a potential health hazard to customers.
This policy is enforced at all Starbucks locations, and employees who violate it may face disciplinary action.
Some employees have expressed frustration with this policy, arguing that it is outdated and discriminatory. However, Starbucks maintains that the policy is necessary to protect the health and safety of its customers.
