Orange or Yellow Hi Viz?

[Rupe]

We only use orange. Seperates us from tarmacers and council workers.

[Stephen Blair]

dont care!

[Matthew Arnold]

Personally i can't stand yellow.... the link to council workers puts me off i think!!! orange for arb!!

 

Oi!! We got aint got many yellow ones left. Got mainly orange now. Got some bright green ones and even some pink ones too. Whoever wears the pink one has to act "camp" all day. It flipping hilarious.

Orange. Yellow is common!

[Pete Hart]

Sorry Matt! no offence intended

 

I was of course referring to the blokes that lean on shovels all day!!

Fluorescent yellow is pointless as once it gets slightly dirty it turns greenish, which funnily enough is the same colour as the trees/grass!

 

I dont get why the forestry commission etc like wearing yellow vests whilst working out in the woods. They would probably be more visible wearing a black T shirt! Maybe they use it as a form of camoflage?

[Andy Collins]

Yes i have one and the one you told me to order for yourself saying "i've earnt me brown wings more than once"

 

Also a spare saying "Not my first trip up bourneville boulevard".

 

Oh you're such a sweetie Ian

Any colour as long as it not long sleeved ! Worked on a site for all last summer where due to risk of sunburn, long sleeved hi viz and long trousers to top it all had to wear hard hats even though zero risk.

 

When it turned really hot, insisted in our RAMS for 10 mins break every half hour to find shade and rehydrate, due to inappropriate PPE site rules. Good old day rates

i wonder if a bright blue vizi vest would be more visible? like a kingfisher blue.

Like Mark Bolam always says "its not the colour of the hi-viz, its the superstar wearing it that matters".
