Safety is the most important thing when working in a hazardous position such as construction or utility-type worker.  Safety on the job is paramount because a work stoppage is never good for anyone.  There are many safety concerns in a job location, but being seen is crucial.  Wearing a harness that is bright and makes you easily visible is key to improving safety.  That is why high-visibility safety apparel (HVSA) should be a required part of a worker’s uniform.  
Be Safe and Be Seen  
Wearing a reflective safety harness is the best way to notify other workers that you are also working in that area. There may be heavy machinery drivers working in the vicinity, so it’s essential to assure safety by being seen.  Parts of the reflective safety harness are constructed with materials that reflect light, usually a combination of reflective and fluorescent materials. They come in fluorescent colors like green, yellow, and orange.  This works well in low-light environments. Wearing the reflective safety harness assures that everybody at the job site sees everyone else and avoids contact with them.  
What Type of Reflective Safety Harness is Needed?  
There are different types of reflective safety harnesses for different types of jobs.  There are a set of standards that have been set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).  There are other classifications of reflective safety harnesses determined by the type of job duty.  Type O is used for off-road jobs.  Type R is used for roadway or traffic management types of jobs.  Type P is used for public safety operations, like the Police or other emergency respondents.  ANSI 107, a set of design standards determined in 1999, requires three qualities of a reflective safety harness.  They need to be visible, reflective and tested as determined by ANSI. 
Properly Maintained and Clothing that Fits 
Having a reflective safety harness that fits matters where safety is concerned. One size fits all doesn’t apply.  Both men and women may be working, and their safety gear needs to fit correctly.  Any type of loose clothing could get caught in equipment.  On the other hand, safety gear that is too tight can cause problems by limiting the range of motion.  Because clothing absorbs oils from our skin, it’s also essential for the reflective safety vest to be washable.  This way, the workers won’t get skin ailments and remain safe at work.  
A reflective safety harness can help prevent an unfortunate accident.  It is essential for workers to feel confident that they are seen while working. That allows them to concentrate on other elements of the job.  A safety harness that is designed and fits the person wearing it is essential where safety is concerned.  A reflective safety harness needs to be prepared to the industry standard, be comfortable, and work properly.  Also, the harness needs to be able to be washed so that it can remain clean and in service for years to come.  These things will ensure that you purchase a solid reflective safety harness.
