L&S Protective Shoe Reimbursement

In the past, Wisconsin Statutes allowed for an allowance annually for employees required to wear protective shoes in performance of their assigned work duties. With HR Design, there is currently no UW-Madison policy regarding protective shoe allowance or reimbursement.

The College of Letters & Science has created a policy of reimbursing staff for the purchase of protective shoes.  Each staff member required to wear protective shoes in the performance of their assigned work duties can be reimbursed up to $160 per pair of protective shoes once every three years. 

Funding questions and requests for reimbursement can be made by contacting Kesha Weber.
