HI-VISIBILITY
BE SEEN. BE SAFE. Know the ANSI / ISEA 107 Standards.
The American National Standard for High-Visibility Safety Apparel and Accessories (ANSI/ISEA 107) is a standard established by the American National Standards Institute. Construction, maintenance, utility, emergency responders, airport ramp personnel and many categories of off-road workers are routinely exposed to potential injury hazards from their low visibility while on the job. This standard provides guidelines for the selection and use of high- visibility safety apparel and other high-visibility accessories to improve worker visibility during the day, in low-light conditions, and at night. Private companies, as well as various federal, state, and local authorities have embraced ANSI/ ISEA 107-compliant garments and accessories as useful PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) for workers exposed to struck- by hazards.
