Although uniforms are usually good at discouraging violence, sometimes they have also encouraged crime. For example... In the United Kingdom, ambulance and medical professionals were being attacked. Because their uniforms were very similar to those of the police, citizens began to attack them because they thought they were police officers. The attacks became more frequent over time. Finally, management in the medical field decided to change the uniforms so that the workers did not look like police officers. Medical workers changed their uniform to bright green uniforms so that people would know who they were. Violent attacks on medical workers went down. Do your employees' uniforms make them easy targets? Unless they really do need to be uniformed, perhaps it is enough for them to carry proper identification instead.
