Why women's own work clothes should be a matter of course today
In many male-dominated professions, it was common for women to wear men's clothing to work for a long time. There was no special workwear and personal protective equipment (PPE) for them. Yet women have a different anatomy than men and make completely different demands on their clothing.
Fortunately, these times are over: leading manufacturers of workwear and PPE such as Bierbaum-Proenen have been offering their own solutions with a special women's fit for many years.
In this blog, we explain why women's own workwear should be a matter of course in all industries today.

For employers in classic "male industries" such as crafts, construction or production companies, there are numerous reasons for providing their female employees with their own work clothes. These are the most important ones:
- More and more women in "men's jobs": The percentage of women workers in crafts, construction and production has increased continuously in recent years. Women are no longer an exception and have a right to comfortable and safe work clothes.
- Increase attractiveness as an employer for women: In times of a shortage of skilled workers, companies cannot afford to do without female employees. Therefore, attractive work clothes should also be a matter of course for women.
- Strengthen team spirit in mixed teams of men and women: This is also only possible if the different requirements of all members are taken into account. These requirements must also be met by the work clothing.
- Professional appearance to the outside world: To strengthen the image and the brand, a uniform and professional appearance towards customers and the public is essential. For this, too, both men and women need the right workwear.
- Performance of the employees: Only those who feel comfortable in their work clothes and can concentrate on their work can deliver top performance! In addition, well-fitting work clothes reduce the risk of accidents.
