The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office Employee Uniform Closet is a program aimed to assist the employees of the office with their uniform needs. The employee uniform closet is a donation-based program that is open and available to all employees. Uniformed staff are often the face of the office to the public, and it is vitally important that all uniforms are in proper condition. The uniforms that are worn by MCSO staff are the first level of professionalism that people see, so keeping uniforms clean and up to policy is crucial. Within the Sheriff’s Office, uniformed employees are given a stipend to purchase uniforms on an annual basis and expected to follow all specified uniform policies and procedures. Given the nature of the Office and the strenuous activities performed by staff, employees will frequently get stains, snags, rips, or tears to parts of their uniforms and these incidents unfortunately are costly to employees. The goal of the MCSO uniform closet is to assist employees by providing gently used items that employees may need to supplement their uniforms, as well as a location for employees to donate items that they may no longer need.
