Body Piercings have no real effect on employment directly, the only time there is an issue is in the use of emergency equipment and personal protective devices. Safety equipment like SCB's (self contained breathing apparatus), protective eye wear (shields, goggles), Hearing protective equipment (ear muffs) etc can be effected by jewellery that does not allow a correct fix and seal between mating surfaces and facial tissue. This also applies to excessive facial hair which can also impede the equipments ability to seal and protect the wearer. So long as common sense and the understanding of mutual safety are understood and addressed by employees and employers, body piercings can live in happy coexistence with industrial work sites. Policies will change as soon as reasonable, understanding, discussions are entered into by all parties concerned in work place safety. Common sense on the part of the piercing fan is the first step to making the art more socially acceptable, dressing according to the needs of the job and showing the stuffed shirts that piercings can be tasteful in so many applications is a good starting point.
