Arbitrator rules against Sheriff Stanek on tattoos

The ridiculous fight over Hennepin County Sheriff Office (HCSO) employees with tattoos goes back to 2013.

I wrote about it in a post on this blog called, Semper Fi? Don't Apply!

Long story short, there was a Detention Deputy walked out because 4 months into her employment after they noticed a small tattoo on her forearm. She had the choice of either removing it or being terminated. The HCSO stood on a District Court ruling from 1985 saying they had the right to make grooming policy. That fight was over mustaches on men and fingernails on women.

It's nice to see an Arbitrator nudge the HCSO into the 21st century!
