The best way to present a professional image at work is to be well groomed and smartly dressed. After all, first impressions count.

That’s why at Arnold Clark we’re dedicated to helping everyone in the company look professional. We’ve found that when you’re looking the part, customers, colleagues and other people you come into contact with will treat you with respect.

We’ve selected uniforms that you can enjoy wearing, and some guidelines to help you look your best at work so you can do your job with confidence. Included in this booklet are full details of our uniform collection and department allocations. You’ll also see which supplier portal to use to order your uniform. You’ll have the opportunity to buy additional uniform items if you wish and we’ve included all the information you’ll need to do so.

If you can’t find your allocation, just ask your line manager who will be able to help.

Firstly, locate your department. You will then be able to see the list of job roles.

Uniform are supplied by Murray Uniforms and Corprotex.

Next to your allocation, you’ll see a logo for the supplier of your uniform. This shows which uniform portal you should use to order it. For example, if your job role allocation shows a Murray uniforms logo, please use the Murray portal to order your items. For some job roles, you will need to order items from both supplier portals. This will be made clear by the logo next to your uniform items.

After the allocations at the back of this booklet, you’ll find information on sizing, costs and the order process for both Murray uniforms and Corprotex. This includes details on how to order additional items and how to return your uniform. You’ll also find guidelines on how your new uniform allocation should be worn.

Note: Part-time employee allocation will be at your manager’s discretion.

Uniform guidelines

Uniform guidelines

The purpose of these uniform guidelines is to ensure that you present yourself in the best possible manner while representing the company.

If your job role is customer facing and has a uniform allocation please wear it at all times and in line with these guidelines.

For non-customer facing roles with a uniform allocation, please note uniform is not mandatory.

How your uniform should be worn

Suit jackets

Jacket collars must not be worn turned up. Jackets must always be available while on duty and should be securely and neatly stored when not being worn.

Only issued trousers are to be worn. Trouser pockets should not be overfilled as this distorts the shape of trousers, looks unsightly and can result in damage to the garment.

Belts

You should wear a black belt with suit trousers, which you should supply yourself.

Skirts

Only wear skirts you have been issued with. The hemline of your skirt should cover your knees.

Shirts, blouses and tops

Only Arnold Clark-issued shirts, blouses and tops are to be worn. Shirts should be worn completely buttoned up and the breast pocket kept empty. Sleeves on long- sleeved shirts should not be rolled or pushed up. Shirts should be worn tucked into trousers.
