Safety Vests
Safety Vests are vital for the protection of workers. Safety managers must learn the different safety vest classes, so the company complies with OSHA standards and regulations.
Safety Vests
Why should workers wear safety vests?
Use safety vests to be seeable by traffic and pedestrians. The bright Hi-Visibility of safety vests comes in two popular colors. The colors are safety orange or safety green.
Class 1 OSHA Safety vest
- For grocery courtesy clerks that push carts in a parking lot, a Class1 OSHA safety vest is a great choice.
- Use the vest where traffic is traveling 25 miles less.
- The amount of reflective tape is 155 sq. inches or 6 feet of tape 2 inches wide.
Class 2 OSHA Safety vest
- Class 2 is the most required because they meet all standards to provide good visibility for high-hazard areas with fast traffic.
- All road construction mandates the use of a class 2 vest.
- Do not use class 2 safety vests at night since they do not have enough reflective taping.
