There are many situations in which individuals may be in danger because of not being very visible. There are also circumstances under which people in certain positions need to be quickly distinguished from the crowd. For these times, and others like them, safety vests may offer an additional level of protection by bringing attention to those who wear them.
Garments of this type are done in fluorescent colors in order to draw attention to an individual who may otherwise be difficult to notice. While orange is the most common hue, some of the others are used to denote certain job positions and make them easier to recognize. Though there are many styles, they will usually fall under one of four basic categories.
Coming in fluorescent colors such as orange, lime and yellow, the Class 2 category is the most commonly used. These are designed to be worn over one's uniform or regular shirt and often bears the issuing company or department's name so that employees are easily determined. Styles in this group are mostly utilized in circumstance where weather makes visibility difficult or where the traffic is heavy but flowing at speeds less than 50mph.
They are the standard issue under many circumstances that involve the police, utility workers, emergency response teams and construction units. There are varied styles of the Class 2 including mesh, adjustable, flame retardant and illuminated. Having variation allows them more flexibility to fit the different situations for which they are used.
When a bit more attention needs to be put on the wearers, the Class 3 offers a somewhat enhanced range of advanced recognition and reflective materials. These are worn as shirts and may be either long, short or half sleeved. Some general situations under which this type is utilized are those where there is virtually no visibility and the weather conditions are extreme or where the traffic flow is heavy and traveling above 50mph.
Public safety designs are often worn by multiple departments during situations involving emergency response and control. To gain order and make it easier to find specific people, each job is normally designated with a specific color garment. Those belonging to the Department of Transportation wear orange, firemen don the associated red, paramedics and medical personnel are given green and those in law enforcement are assigned blue.
Economy class models are the simplest in design and the easiest to get hold of, often used for special events. They can be purchased in multiple fluorescent colors, left plain or marked with generic terms like "security" and "staff", then passed out to individuals who are directing traffic, maintaining control, taking tickets or even providing assistance. This is also a popular night time and bad weather choice for motorcyclist to increase their visibility.
Most safety vests are available in multiple bright colors and several different formats that help them fit their situations better. Some are of a solid material for a more reflective surface, while others may be of mesh in order to provide higher ventilation and comfort. There are those that are designed for enhanced function, sporting pockets for tools and accessories or being made to quickly break apart when snagged on an obstruction to avoid dangerous hang ups.
