Often, these incidents occur because drivers fail to see workers in time\u2014or at all.\r\n\r\nHigh-visibility apparel addresses this by:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Enhancing detection by drivers and equipment operators, even from a distance<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Providing 360-degree visibility with reflective striping for low-light conditions<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Ensuring workers remain visible in adverse weather like fog, rain, or snow<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<blockquote>\u201cVisibility is safety.

This standard classifies garments into three performance levels based on visibility needs and work environment.\r\n<h3>Class 1: Basic Visibility<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Lowest visibility level, suitable for off-road environments (e.g., parking lot attendants)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Not approved for roadway construction due to insufficient visibility<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3>Class 2: Enhanced Visibility<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Designed for traffic speeds under 50 mph<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Features brighter fabrics and additional reflective tape<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Ideal for road construction, survey crews, and utility workers<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3>Class 3: Maximum Visibility<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Highest visibility level, required for roads with speeds over 50 mph<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Includes long sleeves, full-body coverage, and extensive reflective material<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Perfect for high-risk environments like highways<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nFor most road construction projects, <strong>Class 2 or Class 3 garments<\/strong> are mandatory.
