Can PVS Workfind force my brother to shave his beard off? He doesn't want to. They can't make him do that can they?

Unless he is working in food preparation or someplace where it is a 'health risk' (aka, the Health Department don't like finding hair in their food) then they aren't allowed, by law. It would be like saying 'Shave you HEAD'.

Ah. There's the rub. They're trying to get him to work for Hungry Jacks. Shit. He shouldn't have to work there. I don't think they'd LET him work there. He's so hairy. His hairs are everywhere.

If he's working in food PREPARATION then he's kinda screwed but if he's on the front counter or something then it won't matter too much.

Well he could work at the front counter. If they make Scotty get rid of the beard, I'll be so pissed off. *sigh*

Though it'd be interesting since I haven't seen his chin in five years.

Well, if that group is a job search agency then he can say yes or no as he pleases. The jobs they provide him with need to suit not only the skills of the person but also their character. Centrelink can't cut off his dole because he won't shave his beard for a job. It is up to the people finding him work to find a job that will suit him (without Scotty being too picky of course ;)

yeah, absolutely. Also, if they find him work, and he goes there, and they say you have to shave or you can't work here, he's still got the choice of saying, I'm not shaving, and then they turn him down for the job. Just like if he got an interview, they wouldn't necessarially say "shave the beard off, and the jobs yours" but it could come down to that and he says he won't shave it off and gets turned down, so is still 'looking for work'
