[[File:UNSC-Command Crew.jpg|thumb|200px|The working uniform worn by enlisted [[Crewman|crewmen]].]]
The '''UNSC Navy Working Uniform''' is the standard uniform worn by officers and ratings of the [[UNSC Navy]] for shipboard physical work and combat, as opposed to the [[UNSC Navy Dress Uniform|dress]] and [[UNSC Navy Service Uniform|service]] uniforms. In this respect, they are much like the [[Fatigues (Uniform)|fatigues]] worn by [[UNSC Army]] and [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine Corps]] personnel.

==Design==
===Combat-ready uniform===
The combat-ready uniform<ref>'''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 43''</ref> is worn by both commanding officers and junior crewmembers when battle is expected.<ref name="HW">'''Halo Wars'''</ref> It consists of a double-breasted olive drab tunic, bearing the seal of the [[UNSC Defense Force]] (though this may only be the case when assigned to work alongside Defense Force elements such as the [[UNSC Army|Army]] and [[UNSC Air Force|Air Force]] for extended periods of time<ref>[http://halostory.bungie.org/oconnor_mclees_080508.html HBO Interview with Frank O'Connor and Robert McLees]</ref>), with the wearer's surname printed above the seal. It is worn with matching trousers with cargo pockets, a belt-worn [[pistol]] holster, and a baseball-style cap, also bearing the UNSCDF seal.<ref name="HW"/><ref name="Genesis">'''Halo Wars: Genesis'''</ref><ref>'''Halo Legends''', ''The Babysitter'' and ''The Package''</ref> The combat-ready uniforms of ship commanders bear the [[ship emblem]] on the right shoulder. Medals and ribbons are not worn with this uniform.<ref name="HW"/><ref name="Genesis"/>

===Training uniform===
A more austere version of the combat-ready uniform features the wearer's name on the left breast. Rank insignia are not displayed on the shoulders, and UNSCDF affiliation is also not displayed. A cap is not worn with this version. This is likely a training uniform, as its only known use was by [[drill instructor]]s on [[Reach]] during [[SPARTAN-II training]].<ref>'''Halo: Fall of Reach - Boot Camp''', ''Issue 2''</ref>

===Coveralls===
Simple service coveralls are the basic uniform worn by UNSC Navy personnel while on duty.<ref>'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''page 322''</ref> Enlisted rank insignia is worn on the upper sleeve.<ref>'''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'''</ref> Most working uniforms are comprised of a light gray shirt, matching trousers, and a belt; these uniforms also have darker sections that display the UNSC insignia and overall resemble the combat-ready uniform. The letters "UNSC" are displayed on the backpiece.<ref name="TPoA">'''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary''', campaign level ''[[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]''</ref><ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Delta Halo]]''</ref> Others are comprised of a single jumpsuit and are colored based on the wearer's technical specialty: Red, green, and blue are the most commonly used colors.<ref name="Crow's Nest">'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[Crow's Nest]]''</ref><ref>'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[The Covenant (level)|The Covenant]]''</ref>{{Ref/Note|This section does not list all the colors seen in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', as all the working uniforms in ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'' are gray and those seen in ''Halo 3'' are red, blue, or green.}} With both versions, the wearer's name is displayed on the left breast.

===Engineer uniform===
Crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} employ high-visibility yellow jackets, hard hats and visors for working in maintenance and engineering.<ref>'''Halo Wars 2 opening cutscene'''</ref>

==Trivia==
The color-coded working uniforms seen in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' and ''Halo 3'' are almost identical to those worn by [[marathongame:BOB|BOBs]] in the ''[[Marathon]]'' trilogy. However, in ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'', all Navy personnel aboard the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} wear gray two-piece uniforms which resemble those seen in ''Halo Wars'', ''Halo: Reach'', ''Halo Legends'', and other more recent media.
