Gerber Outerwear Protects Those Who Serve with ANSI 107 Compliancy

The Federal Highway Administration has made a general ruling which requires workers operating in close proximity to traffic on all Federal-aid Highways to wear ANSI 107 Class 2 or ANSI 107 Class 3 high visibility clothing.

The purpose of this ruling is to decrease fatalities or injuries which are caused by motor vehicles and construction vehicles and equipment while working on Federal-aid Highways.

This ruling specifies that emergency personnel, police, first responders, and anyone working within close proximity to traffic wear ANSI 107 Class 2 or ANSI 107 Class 3 garments because these garments provide the highest level of conspicuousness to oncoming traffic. The mandate specifies that all agencies must be in compliance by November 2008.

Gerber Outerwear has always had the safety of First Responders in mind, and has several Garments which not only meet, but exceed, the level of visibility necessary to be ANSI 107 Class 2 and ANSI 107 Class 3 compliant.

These Garments include Parkas, Jackets, and Vests, which make meeting the Federal Mandate a realistic and obtainable accomplishment
