Former Emirates flight attendants have claimed they would be monitored and punished by the airline’s grooming officers if they were deemed overweight.
The former employees have described how some staff were enrolled into an ‘Appearance Management Programme’ run by image and grooming officers in order to ensure they were putting on a ‘glamorous Emirates face’.
Some staff were given a total of two weeks to lose the weight before they were ‘checked again’ by officers.
The airline was also strict with its uniform rules and no one with visible tattoos would get hired.
