High Visibility clothing
This standard specifies PPE Clothing used where the wearer needs to be visible at day and night and where there is a risk from moving vehicles or processes.
This standard has three different levels covering three different risks and the maximum level is class 3. The figure by the symbol indicates the area of fluorescent and reflective material within the garment. To certify and CE mark the garment with this symbol, it has to achieve one of these levels. The design of the garment is also a parameter in the CE marking of High Visibility garments.

Combined certification - Class 3 system
If a garment doesn´t reach EN ISO 20471 class 3, it can be combined with other High Visibility garments to reach the highest class of certification - a Class 3 system. For example, a jacket that only reaches class 2 can be worn together with a class 1 or class 2 trousers / bib & brace to reach a Class 3 system. If a garment is certified as a Class 3 system, it is indicated in the product description of the garment.
