If it is a requirement for the job, it is very possible that they make you pay for it. alot of restaurant employees have to buy their work clothes. this isn't much different.

Payment for required protective equipment or clothing is entirely up to the company policies. Each company has different policies. That is why, if your company requires you to purchase special equipment and doesn't reimburse you for it, you can take a "business expense" deduction on your income tax for those expenses.
