Orange and Black Occupational Safety Vest A vest that combines orange and black combines the benefits of both colors: 1. High visibility: The presence of orange (or fluorescent orange) ensures the wearer is visible and conspicuous, increasing their safety. 2. Job identification: The presence of black (often in stripes or sections) helps identify the wearer or their role. For example: o A construction site supervisor's vest might be: orange reinforces their role as a supervisor, while yellow ensures their safety among equipment and workers. o An airport worker's vest: They need to be visible (orange), but their official color or team identification is orange. o A traffic or security policeman's vest: To achieve high visibility while maintaining their corporate identity. Important Standard Specifications Regardless of color, vests must meet safety standards to ensure their effectiveness.
