I too am puzzled by these rules and practices.
My guess is that it is easier to hire
and retain casual staff if they "don't have to see nudity". The pool of shortlistable applicants is much bigger.
- Some employment agencies might flag naturist resorts as "adult" and not advertize these jobs openly.
- I can imagine some parents and spouses worring about the moral safety of a loved one who was considering working at "such an establishment". They might wrongly fear it was only a step away from a strip club or brothel (as some fantasies on this site about naturist beaches and resorts indicate).
- I can also imagine some people starting work at a naturist place and imagining they can take it, but on the first day, find they can't or are later embarassed (especially if female) to tell others where they work and have to explain that they themselves are fully clothed.
- Casual staff leaving mid-season might take longer to replace, vet, induct and train at busy times. Even in places of high general unemployment it might be difficult to get reliable staff at short notice during peak vacation times. I can imagine a (textile) manager at a commercial site "playing it safe".
Having said that, the clothed staff I have spoken to about this, say that although many were initally wary, they later found that the general behaviour and atmosphere at genuine naturist clubs, events and resorts is generally much better that textile ones.
