State public utilities employees were provided Tuesday with new uniforms whose colors coincide with those of the president’s political party.

In a prepared statement, Mexicali State Public Utilities Commission General Manager Armando Carrazco López announced an event in which burgundy uniforms were delivered to employees.

Assemblyman and Public Employee Union Secretary General Manuel Guerrero Luna also took part in the event held in the commission’s Multiple Use Room.

“The most important (thing) is that uniforms are functional, of good quality and that staff can be identified,” Carrazco López said.

Assemblyman Guerrero Luna said the uniforms were delivered with a little delay due to management issues.

Union representatives of all of the commission’s offices took part in the event. Union representative Abraham Castro said field workers received gray uniforms while office staff was given the burgundy colored uniforms.
