Ideas For What An Electrical Technician Should Wear On The Job

This blog is a splurge. Let’s talk about clothes! Technician clothes. Maybe you recently created a technician start-up business of some sort. Or maybe you just got hired as a technician and your boss didn’t really give you a dress code. That’s what this article is for!

The type of technician you are doesn’t matter. Being professional and comfortable on the job is the goal. Let’s go through the perfect apparel options for any technician job to find the best technician uniform for you.
​

Collared Shirts

  • The material of your shirts will depend on the locations you work in, but collared shirts come in all sorts of materials. You might have to do some looking around to see what material suits you best in terms of comfortability for long hours in the cold or in the heat. ​
​

Bottoms

  • Again, depending on your work location, materials can vary. If you want something light and cool, lean more towards khaki/cargo style pants. If you want something more durable and warm, lean towards 100% cotton denims. It all depends on what will make you feel most comfortable on the job. Another important thing to remember is color scheme. Don’t opt for white or bright colors unless those are part of your company colors. When it comes to jeans/pants, professionals stick to blacks, grays, beige/tan, and darker nuetral colors.
​

T-Shirts

  • Tees can be a hit or miss because they're so close to the line between casual and professional. However, depending on how you wear them, they can work. T-Shirts are comfortable, and with a brand colored scheme they can be pulled off as professional. Another way to dress them up is to tuck them in. If you do go the t-shirt route, stick to plain colors without designs. Unless it’s a company logo, plain is the way to go.


​For Colder Worksites

Hoodies

  • Like t-shirts, when you have to wear a hoodie make sure it’s a plain one. Whether it’s a zip-up or a pullover, stay away from any designs unless it’s your company logo. Also make sure it’s not too thick. Sometimes thick sweatshirts will cause overheating in cold weather if you’re doing heavier labor. However, it’s up to your personal preference.
​

Jackets

  • Lightweight jackets should be the go-to jackets for your work day. Find something that’s water and wind resistant with pockets. Lightweight jackets are good because you’ll be both protected and comfortable. Once again, keep it plain! No designs or wording unless it’s your logo or company name.

  • ​If the weather you’re in demands something more durable, so be it! Just remember to keep the colors in correlation with your brand or stick to neutral dark colors.
​​

Onesies

  • Not the kind babies wear… these are more so recognized as coveralls or overalls. They’re durable and ideal for most working environments. If you want something that’s easy to pull on and off and you’re comfortable wearing a one piece, consider these! Whether short or long sleeve, find one that matches your brand colors.
​​

Shoes

  • Shoes will also depend on what your work environment is like. Typically no matter what location you’re in, you’re going to want something durable and comfortable. The choices can range between comfortable sneakers to heavy work boots. Make your choice on whatever looks and feels best with what your wearing. The color of your shoes don’t need to match with your clothes but keep to less flashy colors to stick with a professional look.
​
As you can see, there are a lot of options for maintaining good attire during the work week. The basic takeaways are to wear your brand colors and be consistent with them, to be comfortable, and to be remembered as a professional worker! 

For a look book of certain clothing items check out “Cable Technician Dress Code: How to Put Together an Awesome Uniform.” If you need a more detailed description of other types of clothing for protection such as hard hats, gloves, vests, and so on, read “What Technicians Wear On The Job.”

​Extra Tip:
​

Brand It

  • If you are the owner of the business, think about putting your logo or company name on your work apparel. Or talk to the owner about doing so. If you don’t feel like putting it on all your shirts, invest in putting it on hats or work bags for you and your employees. A brand name/logo will add to making your brand look established and trustworthy. If your work-fit is always the same it’ll show that you’re consistent. Which will ultimately promote your brand and your professionalism.
