As the train cabins get very hot in summer, male drivers requested their employer last autumn to allow them to wear shorts. Arriva management forbade the wearing of shorts, which would look too informal. In protest, the train drivers are now wearing skirts, as women drivers are allowed to. Scared of discrimination charges, Arriva management has yielded that men too may wear skirts, but continue to ban shorts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp align=\"left\" class=\"CM3\">English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.thelocal.se\u002F48384\u002F20130608\u002F\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.thelocal.se\u002F48384\u002F20130608\u002F\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp align=\"left\" class=\"CM3\"> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp align=\"left\" class=\"CM3\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fa> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Mariya Nikolova \u003Ca href=\"mailto:mnikolova@etui.org\">mnikolova@etui.org\u003C\u002Fa>.
