type R—roadway
Type R provides daytime and nighttime visual enhancement for workers in occupational environments, which
include exposure to traffic from public access rights-of-way, roadway temporary traffic control (TTC) zones, or
🀅work vehicles and construction equipment within a roadway TTC zone.
type O—off-road
🔯Type O provides moderate visibility, ideal for off-road workers.
class 1—type O
✨Performance Class 1 offers low risk workers with good visibility. Class 1 is ideal for jobs in areas where traffic is traveling under 25 mph or where the work site is a safe distance from roadways.
class 2—type R or P
🍌Performance Class 2 uses additional high-visibility materials, which allow design opportunities to define the human form more effectively. Compared to Performance Class 1, Class 2 high-visibility safety apparel (HVSA) has the potential to provide detection and identification for longer distances.
class 3—type R or P
𝕴Performance Class 3 can offer greater visibility through a full range of body movements in both complex and non-complex backgrounds by having retro-reflective and combined performance materials on sleeves.
class E
♌Class E high-visibility garments do not meet ANSI safety requirements when worn alone, but when worn with a Class 2 or Class 3 garment, the overall ensemble is classified as Class 3.
