Best Answer

An employee can be fired for any unprotected condition.

If the employee is a union member, the union contract will specify how and when one could be fired.

If not a union member, an employee could be fired for any reason other than one that is forbidden by law or that is contrary to established company policy.

An employee handbook would have to state that piercings, or some general category including piercings, are a protected condition, before being fired for them would be forbidden.

In some workplaces, where sanitation is important, where disease risk is unusually high, or where employee appearance is important, many kinds of piercings may be specifically forbidden.
