Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

HAVING BEEN a lady truck driver for more than 16 years,it annoys me that large companies don't supply uniforms for women.

In this day and age you shouldn't have to dress like men when driving Class 1 or C+E vehicles to deliver to retail supermarkets. I've worked for Kwik Save,Asda.and now Somerfield, but I'd really like to wear a women's outfit,or a uniform that conforms to the shape of a woman.

Another problem is being able to get work gloves that fit.! cannot wear men's work gloves.They are miles too big for me and due to the Health and Safety at Work Act I need gloves. Why can't we be catered for?

Do any of your readers know where! can find a decent female-style uniform?! am 50 in eight weeks and intend to drive for as long as 1 can. I just wish this industry would help to accommodate women more.
