Uniforms

Employers cannot deduct pay from an employee for uniforms or footwear supplied or required by the employer and which are unique to the employer’s business. An employer may require a deposit of up to 25 percent of the cost of a corporately identified uniform. The deposit must be reimbursed when employment ends and the uniform is returned to the employer. Employers should have employees sign for receipt of various items of the uniform.
