High visibility clothing (hi vis clothing) is essential equipment for construction workers.

Colder Temperatures and Snowfall Mean it's Time for Snow Stakes
The snow poles come out when the snow falls. Plow markers, or plow stakes, are an integral part of safe winter snow removal on major and minor roadways, as well as in parking lots and along driveways.
A lot of plowing happens during the nighttime, between dusk and dawn, when light levels are extremely low - even more so during weather events. Snow stakes play an important role in winter driving safety by creating a highly visible delineation along the edge of the roads, that is useful not only to plow drivers, but regular drivers as well.
Key Benefits of Snow Plow Stakes
- Enhance Visibility
- Highly Durable
- Delineate Roads / Plowable Areas
- Prevent Damage
Snow Marker Stakes Enhance Visibility
Reflective snow markers and fluorescent snow pole options - including high

Why Choose Water Filled Barriers Over Concrete Barriers?
There are many great reasons why plastic water filled barricades might be a better solution for your project than concrete barriers. Let's take a look at some of these reasons below.
The Five Key Benefits of Water Filled Barricades
1) Safety
2) Portability
3) Visibility
4) Modularity
5) Versatility
Safety
When properly deployed, water filled jersey barriers don't just stop crashes, they absord the impact from the crash, instead of the vehicle absorbing all of the impact. This increases the chances of survival for both people inside the vehicle and workers, or pedestrians in the protection zone.
Portability
Temporary water filled barriers are manufactured with both a fill hole and a drain hole,

Pedestrian Crosswalk Signs Are A Great Way To Improve Pedestrian Safety
Crosswalk signs are designed to alert oncoming divers of upcoming crosswalks and nearby pedestrians. They'e most commonly installed by state and local transportation departments, but are also used in private areas that are open to the public like malls, theme parks, shopping centers, sports arenas and other similar locations. They're highly visible, they encourage drivers to either stop or yield when approaching the intersection, and because the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) considers them to be regulatory signs, they must follow the requirements set by the MUTCD. Below is a breakdown of the important guidelines when installing pedestrian crosswalk signs, including

August 26, 2020One in five accidents occurs in a parking lot or garage. That means the dreaded parking lot accident accounts for 20% of all accidents! Not only that, but upwards of 500 deaths are attributed, each year, to parking lot accidents.
Building Owners May Be Liable

Parking lot safety in the workplace is just as important as it is anywhere else, including grocery stores, malls, shopping complexes, etc.
