All Pharmacist in Watsons Thailand will wear a standard uniform shirt to work same as all other Watsons staff.
They will add a white coat on top to differentiate them from other normal staff.





While pharmacist in Watsons Malaysia did not wear a uniform.
They will just wear a white coat when working.




Why Watsons Malaysia did not require their pharmacists to wear uniform?

I found that if they wear a uniform like Watsons Thailand, it will looks more neat, professional and more easily recognizable as well.

What's your opinion?

I don't think different uniforms is necessary seeing that the pharmacists never venture out of their designated places anyway.

Meaning same uniform as sales assistant will do?

But if like tis we might face difficulty who to look for to seek professional advice.

Yes for brand image

Wearing the white coat is already clear enough to differentiate between the pharmacist and the rest.

yes white coat will stand out from the rest.
but the point is how about the uniform as in other country?
is it necessary or not?

International chain group like watsons should standardize their standards globally.

agree with these two. if the pharmacist are always the their place we wouldn't confused them with sales assistants. and wearing white coat is enough to differentiate them on top of my point above.

so your point is just a white coat is enough and no need uniform as in other country?

yes. it's nice to have but not necessary.

but at least a name tag with Watson's word and their name.

it's like a branding

like i said it's nice to have but not necessary.

like the case of Luxuries vs. Necessities

why u choose watson, not guardian?

Pharmacists work at Watson or guardian like wasted talent. Where do they go from there I wonder.

Y? They still practice their skills and the pharmaceutical career progression is same.

Some article argument state u will feel not being part of the team if dress differently

then the pharmacist should wear the uniform like everyone else WITHOUT the white coat then.

So ko ingat pakai uniform lagi pandai entertain customer?

What world of kiasu you from dude?
