Thinking about wearing a costume to work? Here’s a guide for do’s and don’ts to make sure you’re the right kind of spooky at work:
Do:
- Use your best judgement when choosing a costume; if you aren’t sure if it’s appropriate, it’s probably best to choose something else
- Ask around to see what your co-workers are dressing up as
- Have fun with it and be creative!
Don’t:
- Wear anything that is offensive, or that could reinforce harmful stereotypes around race, gender, ability, culture or mental health
- Violate any of your workplace policies/dress codes
In the spirit of Halloween, here are some of the spookiest jobs:
1. Gravedigger
2. Funeral director
3. Arachnologist (spider scientist)
4. Ghost hunter
5. Embalmer (preparing bodies for funeral homes)
6. Crime scene cleaner
7. High-rise window cleaner
8. Coroner (examining deceased bodies)
9. Exterminator
10. Snake milker (extract venom from snakes)
