In 2015, ANSI/ISEA 107 underwent an extensive overhaul. The new version merges ANSI/ISEA 107-2010 and ANSI/ISEA 207-2011 into a single document that considers all occupations faced with low-visibility hazards, including public safety workers. The changes outlined in the 2015 revision will impact wearers of high-visibility safety apparel (HSVA) across a wide range of industries, including construction, oil and gas, and law enforcement. This webinar will explain how the changes to ANSI/ISEA 107 affect your safety program.

Learning objectives:

• What has changed in ANSI/ISEA 107
• What makes a garment hi-vis
• Which industries are affected by this change
• How to properly select hi-vis clothing
• What the new labeling requirements are for hi-vis clothing
