[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On one hand, you are the employer, so it seems like your employee should abide by your comfort zone (as long as it is legal). BUT, what if you wanted her to wear a veil in your home, that would be going too far in my opinion.

How about your hire a cleaning person through an agency (which usually protects them and you more anyway, in terms of benefits/being bonded, etc). When you first put in the request, explain that due to your cultural/religious beliefs/customs, you would appreciate it if the person they send does not wear X, Y, Z (don't label it as modest, be specific, since "modest" is subjective). That way you are describing a work requirement, not insulting an individual.[/quote]

Why do people keep saying that OP is the employer?  It sounds like this is a cleaning lady, not a full-time housekeeper.  So OP is not the employer.  [/quote]

Because mediocre people like to shriek "I pay your salary" whenever someone says "no" to them.

Unpopular opinion: "the customer is always right" culture has [i]really[/i] damaged a lot of people. [/quote]

No one is shrieking, and no one has said “no.”  Most posters are saying that the OP is out of bounds to say anything at all, that she should be a good little woman, clean her home herself, keep silent, and suck it up.  If she expresses an opinion, she might accidentally offend someone!
