Severe scaring or sensitive skin, hormonal treatments, could be any of those 3 reasons, there may be others.

Personally I think it is a violation of civil rights if an employer does not allow you to have facial hair, but some OSHA regulations may require it.

To all those that read this, be aware if you have facial hair and would like to keep it, check your job description, and the OSHA regualtions pertaining to that job description, if OSHA does not have any requirements reguarding facial hair, and you want to keep your facial hair, and the employer does not permit it, your next stop is your local civil liberties office! Make a case, stand your ground, don't let corprate america or the corprate world take away all your freedoms.

My Great grandfather didn't grow a beard until after he had a stroke. But at least by then he had long since retired.

That is the first I have ever heard that. The only reason I could think of is maybe scars.

Probably to cover up a scar or birthmark, hormone disorders? - that rule seems a little ott to me!

If you have acne there and you have sensitive skin that when you shave it will get infected
