As of November 24, 2008 Federal law requires that a safety vest be worn by, “All response and support activities that occur on the roadways that facilitate the movement of traffic”.
Simply said if you are on a street of any kind Federal Law says you must be wearing your safety vest, day or night.
We are issuing each employee his or her own personal safety vest, however the order is on back order. To meet the deadline, we are placing two vests in each unit satchel. Additional vest can be acquired for any third riders by going through the normal inventory process (i.e. the cage)
When the bulk order comes in you will be issued your personal vest. See Policy #518 for complete details.
