[Avodah] Employing non-tznius staff

If I'm involved in hiring more staff for our office, how should I
handle the possibility of hiring a lady who doesn't live up to Rav
Falk's guidelines, to say the least.

What would my halachic and legal options allow me to do?

Assuming that the best person for the job is such a candidate, and the
runner up is a man or a conservatively dressed lady, should I put
business or halacha first?

This is currently theoretical (though we are hiring), but after
thinking about it, I decided I'd like the chevra's input - even though
the answer should be obvious.

(The issue is tzibur-oriented, as there are many frum Yidden working
here, and there's always meetings that you have to be present at, and
can't "look at the floor" while being polite.)

Thanks

- Danny
