Service Uniform has 5 reasons...

 

If you’re thinking of having your employees wear uniforms, then the best thing you can do is provide the uniforms for them. It’s even better to go with a uniform rental program through Service Uniform.

Here are 5 reasons why you should provide uniforms for your employees.

1. Logos.
There are tons of reasons to have your employees wear uniforms, but if you’re looking for a sharp, branded, professional look, you need to have your logo on the uniforms. Service Uniform offers a variety of company logo styles to create customized work uniforms for your company.

2. Uniforms stay clean and maintained.
When you have a uniform rental program, you can monitor the cleanliness and maintenance of the uniforms. As much as we love our employees, it’s impossible to make sure they thoroughly wash their uniforms. Also, if it’s left up to the employees, some may wash more than others, causing more wear and fading. Over time this leads to the uniforms looking different.

3. A more unified look.
Some companies tell their employees to “wear all black”. It will look good if all the employees wear the same color, but the impact will not be as powerful unless they are wearing the same uniform. Not providing a uniform can also lead to a problem of monitoring appropriateness. You don’t need the extra daily hassle of making sure employees are at dress code standards.

4. Your employees save money.
Uniforms are an added benefit for your employees. By wearing uniforms to work, they are protecting their personal wardrobe from wear and tear, thus saving money.

5. Sometimes the law requires it.
Are you familiar with Texas uniform laws? If not, don’t worry it’s really easy to follow! “If the wearing of clean uniforms is required by law, by the employer, or by the nature of the work, the financial burden of furnishing or maintaining these clean uniforms may not be imposed upon the employees if to do so would reduce their wages below the minimum wage.”

If your company is positioned in the fast food or retail business, it’s easier to work with Service Uniform to provide uniforms for your employees, so that way you don’t have to worry about reducing wages.

It’s HOT! Stay Cool with Service Uniform

/in , , , /by

July is hot.

Very hot.

If you work outdoors then you know how incredibly hot the summers are here in Texas. It’s crucial to drink plenty of water and find shade when necessary to protect yourself, but it’s also important to wear the right uniform.

We’re not talking shorts and a tank top (although that may be the next best thing). Instead, Service Uniform will provide you with wicking uniforms that keep you dry during even the hottest parts of the day.

But what is wicking? Wicking means the fabric absorbs sweat by capillary action. Capillary action is the ability of liquid to flow in narrow spaces without the assistance of external forces. In simpler terms: wicking material keeps skin dry and helps avoid chafing and swings in body temperature.

So when working in the hot weather, cotton uniforms are not exactly your best friend. Cotton absorbs sweat but does not allow it to dry, causing damp spots in your uniform. Service Uniform uses Red Kap Touchtex technology to keep you dry and comfortable. Touchtex wicks sweat off the skin and spreads it over the fabric face where it evaporates within seconds. We understand how important uniforms are to you and your company, so we want to make sure that everyone is comfortable.
