    NMW Compliance Officer - How much time & information can they demand?

    Thank you Higgsy, I appreciate that I have been in the wrong with my preferred uniform requests. And I take on board the advice given, it was the way some posters wrote their disgust with me. I stand by a certain poster being rude & judgemental. I just wanted some polite facts, so I could...

    She has been rude, and judgemental from her first post. Others have been very helpful, I was looking for information not judgement.

    When did I say I was upset? From all your posts it is clear you do not live in the real world. I can't see many businesses would want to pay for your 'expertise' after reading your posts on this thread. You sound like you have had a privileged life, and never had to actually face real issues...

    We have aprons that cover the whole chest area, so slogans and pictures there wouldn't been seen anyway. When staff come in for their interview, 98% arrive in black clothes. They may have purchased for the interview, but they do already own at time of employment offer? So can they not wear these...

    Going forward. Provide all the staff details - NOT A PROBLEM - I was mearly asking are they right to ask for that as I had been told that was not correct. If they feel staff have felt they need to purchase clothes at their expense, what then? I can't pay all ex staff for uniform they may have...

    2Front-of-house staff are required to wear black jeans or a black skirt with their branded Wagamama top. The government considered this asking the staff to buy a uniform. But as AccountingWEB member New Moon (link removed), “The case seems to centre around asking staff to wear a particular...

    NMW Compliance Officer - How much time & information can they demand?

    First post - Staff wear black, clean clothes, & clean trainers. I don't provide it. Last post - Especially as staff were not wearing black on the visit. Multicoloured trousers, patterned tops, greys etc. Which again proves it's not forced, just preferred. This is what I told HMRC my uniform...

    Thank you so much AnneLou, I really appreciate a kind response, with someone trying to be helpful, not rude, and not incinuating I'm a criminal through choice! The business I have was making no money when I took over the premises, I had 2 good years, enough to pay back some of the start up...

    NMW Compliance Officer - How much time & information can they demand?

    No I don't, which is why I am on a Business Forum asking for help... They can wear their own clothes to work, HMRCs issue is how strict I am with what clothes. They (hmrc) had no issue with them wearing their own clothes, only how STRICT I am with colours, which would mean they had no choice...

    IF they don't want to wear their nice clothes. Eg, sports wear, designer clothes, I'm happy for them to wear to work. If they don't want to, I tell them the cheapest place to get clothes. Up to them, wear currently owned clothes, or buy more. THIER choice

    How have I broken the rules? They conducted several employee interviews on the visit, they were happy with all the information they received. I've told them I am happy to change my uniform policy if that would be better. Staff on the day were not all wearing black, one they interviewed had hippy...

    NMW Compliance Officer - How much time & information can they demand?

    I don't belive anyone is required to buy anything. Just wear clean dark top, clean dark trousers/jeans. Clean trainers (any colour) I'm fine with them conducting more worker interviews. Not so fine with supplying all staff details for last 12 months to interview them. Also some current staff...

    NMW Compliance Officer - How much time & information can they demand?

    Really interested in the GDPR information. Do I have the right to give out phone numbers/addresses of ex staff that worked for me 11 months ago? Also payslips from 11 months ago? Would my accountants charge for copies of the last 12months of everything they have for us? I can see that being...
