Business practices within Safety Apparel market are heavily influenced by changing trends across the category as well as within the broader Clothing and Textiles market. The global industry has seen a gradual increase in labor cost due to several factors, such as shortage of a trained workforce, increase in minimum wages, regulations around employee benefits and declining appeal for what have been traditionally called unskilled jobs. As the employee expenses increase, suppliers are compelled to pass some of this increase to their buyers by charging higher prices. Many suppliers are trying to enhance the efficiencies and productivity within their operations through investment in new technologies and an overhaul of processes. Some of these initiatives are likely to influence their cost structure adversely till the time they recover their investments. However, a successful implementation of these programs can benefit them with a better cost proposition in the longer run. Buyers are moving towards longer contract durations with suppliers of Safety Apparel to benefit from value-based discounts, integrated products and services, lower renewal cost and lesser expenses on contracting activities. As a result, category managers need to closely monitor the Safety Apparel procurement trends and identify changes required in their procurement environment for the category.
