"The History of High-Visibility Vests: From Innovation to Essential Safety Gear"
High-visibility clothing, commonly known as "hi-vis," has become an essential component of safety attire across various industries. Its origins can be traced back to the 1930s when American Bob Switzer, after suffering a workplace injury, collaborated with his brother to develop fluorescent paints. They applied these luminous paints to fabric, creating the first piece of high-visibility clothing.
In the United Kingdom, the adoption of hi-vis clothing began in 1964 when railway maintenance workers in Glasgow were issued fluorescent orange jackets, known as "fire-flies," to enhance their visibility on the tracks. Following successful trials, the use of high-visibility attire expanded to other regions and industries.
The 1970s and 1980s saw a broader acceptance of hi-vis clothing, especially in construction and emergency services. The introduction of the 1974 Health and Safety at Work Act and the 1992 Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations in the UK mandated the use of personal protective equipment, including high-visibility garments, in hazardous work environments.
Over the years, advancements in materials and design have led to lighter, more durable, and more comfortable hi-vis clothing. Today, these garments are not only standard in various professions but are also utilized by cyclists, runners, and outdoor enthusiasts to ensure safety by enhancing visibility.
