In any hazardous working environment, particularly those based outdoors, it's important to ensure the visibility of workers by providing them with the proper workwear. High visibility clothing is an essential item in many manual professions, and is also becoming increasingly popular in schools in order to prevent road traffic accidents involving children.
The amount of high visibility clothing required will depend on the lighting and weather conditions of the workplace, as well as the risks posed to the the individual. For example, those at risk from moving vehicles should wear full body hi-vis clothing to ensure that they are fully visible to drivers, as should those working at night. The item itself should also be suitable for the working conditions, and should not interfere with other safety precautions. An example of this would be warehouse workers, who should ensure that any loose fitting items are unable to get caught in machinery.
Over at
SafetyLifeGear we provide a range of personalised PPE and workwear, all of which conforms to EU safety regulations, so that you can be assured that you are getting a high-quality, genuine piece of safety gear. Here are some of the essential items we stock:
Hi-Vis Vests
Over at SafetyLifeGear, we stock a comprehensive selection of hi-vis vests, in a vast array of sizes, styles and colours. Suitable for a wide age group and a range of operations, these vests can easily be worn over an individual's usual clothing to provide high visibility when required for a particular task. These vests can also be personalised to include company branding, so that the item is in-keeping with your brand and the rest of your company uniform.
Hi-Vis Jackets
Due to the fact that hi-visibility items are primarily required in outdoor work, it is vital that employers in these sectors are able to cater to changes in weather conditions in order to further guarantee the safety and well-being of their workers. For this reason, SafetyLifeGear provide a selection of Vi-Vis jackets for a number of purposes, providing suitable protection and ease of movement for each particular task.
Hi Vis Trousers
As noted above, certain types of work may require full coverage high visibility clothing, in order to ensure that workers in these professions are provided with the highest level of visibility possible. For this reason, SafetyLifeGear also supply a variety of hi-vis trousers and coveralls, each of which can also be branded in the same way as the rest of the high-vis range.
