appearance as possible (shirt tucked in, etc.).
When uniform items become unserviceable or
unsightly, employees shall report such fact to
his/her supervisor to initiate replacement.
Employees issued a uniform shall wear the
uniform at all times while on duty. If a cap or hat
is provided by the City, the employee shall wear
the cap or hat provided and shall refrain from
wearing a personal cap or hat.		 1. At all times drivers must wear SST Logoed apparel as their outer layer, and ensure that their name tag is visible to the passenger.
