pajama law lets you get away with wearing your underwear at work. Seriously though, it's illegal to wear anything below the waist after 6am.
Boss pulled me aside and said 'get dressed'. I told him my pants were a legal requirement in NY. He laughed.
Saw guy in yoga shorts on break. HR came out swinging for Pajama Law violation before he even got back to his desk.
My coworker was rolling around in sweatpants at 2pm. Manager said 'this is unprofessional' and wrote him up under dress code

Wearing pajamas to work violates federal OSHA guidelines that require employers to maintain a safe working environment. The fabric doesn't breathe, temperature regulation is off.
Got pulled into the breakroom for 'safety concerns' because I was wearing silk sleepwear in 90-degree office.
My boss told me my flannel pajama top 'doesn't meet dress code standards'. Made fun of it all morning.
Safety officer said my sweatpants are a fire hazard. Apparently my own comfort doesn't matter.

Some companies have 'business casual' that still requires pants and shirts. Pajamas don't qualify as business attire under most employee handbooks.
New hire orientation included: 'No pajamas, no swimsuits'. Got docked $50 for wearing my sleep shirt to a client meeting.
My company's handbook says 'professional appearance required'. Wearing boxers in an office isn't professional. Period.
