Revised safety poster shows workers how to stand out safely around mobile equipment and vehicles

Published on: April 24, 2023

This visual aid shows workers the personal protective equipment (PPE) they must wear to help them be seen around mobile equipment and vehicles.

Workers must wear Class 1 high-visibility apparel if they work around vehicles or mobile equipment moving slower than 30 km/h. If workers are around vehicles moving faster than 30 km/h, they must wear Class 2 or 3 high-visibility apparel.

Stand out safely: High-visibility apparel has been updated to reflect current health and safety legislation for high-visibility and distinguishing apparel, as well as provide important information on colour use, care, and visibility-enhancing trim for classes 1, 2, and 3.

You can also order full-colour printed copies of this poster from our WorkSafeBC Bookstore. The poster contains a perforation between the two sides for maximum flexibility in displaying one or both sides in a limited space.

Visit our Personal protective equipment pages for more information on high-visibility apparel and other forms of PPE.
