Hi-Vis clothing helps comply with CSA standards

With a mission to make it easy to be safe, Mister Safety Shoes carries a range of high visibility (Hi-Vis) safety clothing. The selection ranges from t-shirts and traffic vests to sweaters, jackets, pants and overalls that all comply with CSA standards.

CSA standards

Requirements forHi-Vis clothingare set out in the CSA Standard Z96-15 High-Visibility Safety Apparel. Hi-Vis clothing is needed on jobs where there is low light and low visibility, especially when moving vehicles are in the area. Since the human eye is good at spotting contrasting and bright objects, Hi-Vis clothing is designed to provide a high colour contrast against the work environment.

The CSA standard provides criteria for the design of contrast stripes and bands on Hi-Vis clothing. For instance, stripes on the arms and legs are recommended for the highest level of visibility, as they can provide visual clues about the movement of the worker, even under poor light conditions and at great distances.
