Following my article in The Times of July 7, related to the uncomfortable attire people are obliged to wear in certain situations, I have found out that lady police officers’ hats are actually made of wool and have to be worn even in the sweltering heat of summer when temperatures are close to 40˚Celsius.

These hats are inhuman and counterproductive. They are unhealthy in summer as they heat up the head and do not help to promote excellent efficiency. They are not compatible with best ergonomics and employee satisfaction.

Ministry of the Interior (now through OPM), have a heart. Give these ladies lighter-material summer hats!
