> It may be in a culture lacking enforcement of minor rules results in more people feeling free to transgress rules that actively benefit them, but that is a second order effect.

Not just that, but for example, it will leave distaste in the abiding workers mouths. "I came here every day, respect the dress code, and that lazy bastard does not?".

So, don't really make rules that take much effort to enforce, or leave more open interpretation for small things, "common sense".

I don't know the answer, but a lot of minor things makes a big bad thing.

Or, in other words, there is a competitive advantage here: obeying the rule is a hassle. Following a dress code is more annoying than wearing whatever one is comfortable in. The abiding workers are rightfully angry, because they're paying a price, however minor, for apparently no reason.
