RE: [NEMSMA List Serv] Uniforms

[Guest guest]

I would like to know how many folks allow personnel to wear " Baseball "

caps on duty when not playing baseball... also if they discipline folks

for not taking them off in a church or home when asked to remove

them....

Subject: [NEMSMA List Serv] Uniforms

We are considering a change in our uniforms for our field, supervisor

and management staff. We have been reviewing a large number of products

to see exactly what is available now days, and we have found a multitude

of new products that, especially for us in South Texas, really help

employees better handle the heat stress while working outside.

During this process, we have been discussing what type of uniform we

would like to move forward with. We currently have our employees wear

what we call " class B " uniforms which is a short sleeve button up

uniform shirt with two pockets and patches on the sleeves along with

" EMT Pants " which are the tactical style pants with several pockets on

both legs. Our secondary uniform is a polo shirt which can be worn at

night or as a 2nd uniform if the 1st one become soiled while on duty.

A group of our employees are requesting to go to polos all the time with

a class B style shirt just for the " dressy " times such as ceremonies and

public information or education events. This has initiated a large

amount of discussion and I would like to see what the trend is around

the country so that we can utilize this information in assisting us in

making our decisions.

I have developed a really quick survey, it should only take 2-3 minutes

if you folks wouldn't mind taking this time to help us out, I would

surely appreciate it. As others do, I would be happy to share the

results so if you want to see them, please include your email address in

the last question.
