A dirndl is a traditional costume worn by women in Bavaria and Austria. It is characterised by a generally rather revealing décolleté and consists of a dress and apron with a tight, low-cut top whose figure enhancing effect is accentuated by a short white blouse. Bavarian barmaids typically dress in dirndls. However, under the European Union’s Optical Radiation Directive, which is to be voted in the European Parliament next month, employers face heavy fines if they fail to protect their employees against the risk of sunburn.

Say it ain't so! Although I guess compliance would be pretty easy, a bottle of SPF30 should take care of that, but then you run into the guys who are worried about making sure that their employees have proper coverage and insist on making sure their staff has properly used that lotion... I smell a sexual harassment lawsuit, or some bad porn being written, about this.
