When was women's specific PPE introduced into United Living?

United Living implemented Women's PPE in February 2023.

What women's specific PPE is available?

Women's specific high visibility coats, fleeces and trousers are available, including maternity wear high visibility clothing.

How is it procured?

Individual employees procure their PPE by placing an order with their buyer, including their personal requirements for PPE. The PPE can be delivered to any location (home, site, office, etc.)

(Why is this important? It allows flexible and remote workers, i.e. employees with family and care commitments, to receive PPE to their home address, therefore making it more accessible).

What do the United Living staff say?

"As a female working out on site, I found that PPE never fit correctly to suit my body shape and it made me feel uncomfortable, therefore I contacted a supplier to discuss the options available" - Lisa Smith, Head of SHEQ.
