Question
Hello, My wife is a nurse in a hospital, and she is pregnant. The hospital uniform is too short. She tried wearing a skirt under the uniform, but she can't work with it. Is she allowed to wear pants (which are part of the hospital uniform) under the skirt?
Answer
Hello
If the pants are completely covered, and the legs are properly covered by the skirt, it is permitted.
However, according to your description, the pants will inevitably show after the skirt, and additionally, only the pants will cover part of the area that requires covering by law, as the uniform is too short.
