Survey shows staff want better workwear
Some 60% of managers in charge of company workwear have received complaints from staff about their lack of comfort, despite 70% recognising that ill-fitting workwear can have a negative impact on staff morale. These findings follow a survey of more than 2000 professionals by Silverbuck, a specialist in workwear and PPE.
The company, part of the Anchorpoint Group, found that one in five of the managers surveyed believed their current workwear was below acceptable standard and one in every four felt it did not promote their corporate brand as effectively as it should.
In addition, 80% said they experienced difficulties in sourcing workwear to meet deadlines.
Dale Paterson, MD of the Anchorpoint Group, commented: “From our discussions with new and prospective clients we knew about the issues highlighted by the survey, but we were very surprised by the scale of some of these problems.”
Silverbuck’s service includes advising clients on tailored solutions and supplying desirable workwear that make a positive difference to people and productivity. www.silverbuck.co.uk
