Under: PPE and WorkwearHow to Protect Vulnerable Workers with VisiLite Hard Hat Illumination
High-visibility clothing is a must, but if you want to give vulnerable workers maximum protection, a VisiLite™ Hard Hat Illumination system can make all the difference.
Visibility is critical for workers operating by the roadside or for industries with vehicles or heavy machinery moving on site. In 2016/17, there were 31 fatalities caused by victims being struck by moving vehicles at work – over 20% of all workplace fatalities (HSE statistics).
The human eye responds best to bright and contrasting objects. In addition to High-visibility safety wear, the active illumination offered by VisiLite™ acts as a further stimulus to enhance driver awareness to the presence of colleagues in work zones.
During rigorous testing, VisiLite™ remained visible for up to 50 metres. It also withstands wet weather conditions and temperature ranges between -10 and +50˚C.”
