Avoid These Mistakes When Choosing
New Work Uniforms
It’s easy to make mistakes, especially when it
comes to your work uniforms. You should do everything you can to ensure that
they look professional, are easy to clean, and most important of all,
comfortable for your workers to wear on long shifts of eight hours or
more!
Putting Design Before Function
You might have heard an old saying about form
following function. In this case, it’s very true. Putting design before
function would be a mistake. Although it is important to make smart aesthetic
choices (no one wants to wear an ugly or off-putting uniform!) the
functionality of the uniform should come first. After all, the uniform a
security guard wears will be very different
than the one a server in a restaurant would wear, so keep that in mind!
Going with the Lowest Price
You might think that choosing the cheapest
options saves you money. However, it’s smarter to shop around. Don’t go for
your very first choice or whichever one offers you rock bottom prices. It’s
more than likely that the quality isn’t there. You get what you pay for, and
you don’t want to be on the hook for subpar uniforms that don’t meet your needs
or expectations!
Not Marketing Your Brand
Uniforms do more than protect your workers and
indicate to shoppers, guests, and customers whom to address their questions to
when they have one. Uniforms also represent fantastic marketing potential, and
you don’t want to leave that potential untapped or unfulfilled. That’s why you
should put money towards the logos and other graphic designs on your logos,
especially after you have rebranded and are adjusting your existing uniforms to
reflect that change.
Ignoring Input from Employees
Be sure to get some input from your employees
as well. Even if you are trying to promote a sense of team unity by issuing
everyone with polo shirts in different sizes and colors, you should listen to
them and what they have to say - after all, they are the ones who need to wear
the uniforms no matter what the work day can throw at
them!
