In Townley v. BJ’s Restaurant, the California Court of Appeal recently ruled that employers are not required to reimburse employees for slip-resistant shoes as they do not qualify as a uniform under California law.  This podcast addresses this new case, as well as other issues related to uniforms, such as:

  • When must an employer pay for a uniform?
  • When does the employer have to pay for the costs of cleaning the uniform?
  • Can an employer require a deposit for a uniform?
