Official word from my HR dept...
With various posts here and there in the recent past regarding our kilted gents having issues with employers, I decided to just go ahead and ask my HR rep what our company has to say about it. I've worn the kilt on a few occasions (e.g. Tartan Day) without incident, but figured I'd just ask.
After my rep conferred with a few other people in HR, her official response was, and I quote:
Now I'm tempted to wear it more often!

Ask for it in writing (or save the email). Tides can turn, and it's nice to have proof you were green-lighted.

Congratulations on the wearing of the kilt at work.
My employer is fine with it, the government regulators are not. (O.S.H.A.) I wear the kilt to work and slide into trousers for the work hours and leave kilted.

That's AWESOME! I too have been trying for months to get approval at work. Yet despite all the "diversity" they preach I still can't wear them regularly.
