High Visibility Safety Garments

Make Yourself Visible With Our High-Visibility Safety Garments

When you are working in an area with a lot of traffic or where there is heavy machinery in use, you need to be seen and protected. High visibility safety garments meet this requirement by making workers more visible to motorists. There are three classes of high visibility garments: Class 1 provides the least coverage with good visibility, Class 2 is moderate coverage with superior visibility, and Class 3 provides the greatest visibility in poor lighting conditions and at a distance. These types of apparel are appropriate for workers who are engaged in activities where they can’t focus their entire attention on approaching traffic.

Examples of workers who would wear high-visibility safety garments include parking service attendants, warehouse workers, and sidewalk maintenance employees. The garment must be highly visible and provide full-body coverage.

The performance of high-visibility garments depends on where the wearer is working. They need to be conspicuous through the entire range of motion and should have a minimum amount of retroreflective material. The FHWA requires these types of safety garments for employees performing certain activities that are near roadways. Aside from being conspicuous, high-visibility clothing is also required for people working in the airport and on construction sites.
