During which time of the year may conductors remove their uniform coats while on duty?

Conductors are permitted to remove their uniform coats while on duty during the warmer months, specifically from May 15 to October 1. This time frame is designated because it typically encompasses the season with higher temperatures, allowing for a more comfortable experience for conductors as they perform their duties. The policy is designed to ensure that the staff can maintain professionalism while also considering the weather conditions they face. During this period, uniforms are generally adapted to be more suitable for the warmer climate, which enhances both comfort and service effectiveness.

In contrast, during colder months or other specified periods, uniform coats are a necessary part of the attire to provide warmth and maintain a standard appearance that aligns with the company’s branding and professionalism.
