Pull up a sandbag, ....

When i was in the forces (Eons ago) we were allowed to choose between wearing an open neck dark blue shirt, or a light blue shirt with a tie.
Whilst working for the NHS, The men I have worked with always worn ties. I think that ties look smarter, but on a hot summer day can be uncomfortable. Maybe more choice is required. Female technicians are able to choose how they want to dress. Maybe more flexibility would not be a bad thing.
