• Promote a Brand. When employees wear uniforms displaying corporate logos and colours, they help brand and differentiate their business in the markets they serve.
• Free advertising. Well designed work uniforms worn in public become “walking billboards,” promoting a company’s products and services “for free.”
• Prevent product cross-contamination. Uniform programs designed specifically for the food or healthcare industries can help reduce cross-contamination threats; those constructed to dissipate static electricity can help prevent damage to sensitive electronic components.
• Create a team spirit. Work uniforms promote a sense of team spirit and a sense of belonging. This, in turn, can improve worker productivity.
• Employee benefit. Employer-provided uniforms save employees money, and when provided as part of a rental program, eliminate employee laundering time and expense.
• Improve customer relationships. Work uniforms immediately identify company representatives who can be approached for purchasing information, thereby improving overall customer service.
