Should you pay for PPE?
10 Answers
Is it legal for a company to ask it's employees to pay for personal protective equipment? I do know that companys can claim for PPE as tax deductable items, thereby incurring no cost. This relates to protective clothing, footwear, industrial gloves etc. And I know a couple of companys where employees have to make a financial contribution. Is this legal, bearing in mind that these items are tax deductable for the company?
