Construction
Hard hat, hi-vis outerwear, gloves, safety footwear, and weather layers for mixed exterior work.
Six common workplace packages
Each workplace package is written as a starting point. Final selection should reflect your hazard assessment, local rules, and internal EHS requirements.
Hard hat, hi-vis outerwear, gloves, safety footwear, and weather layers for mixed exterior work.
FR shirts, rugged pants, eye protection, hand protection, and ASTM footwear for shop-floor tasks.
FR hi-vis layers, safety boots, gloves, and documented review points for gas detection and confined work.
High-visibility layers, weather protection, footwear, and employer-led review for arc-rated needs.
Class 2 or Class 3 visibility planning, rainwear, boots, and fast replenishment for field teams.
Slip-resistant footwear, cleanable outer layers, gloves, and color-controlled garment programs.
This matrix shows how Carhartt organizes early program discussions. It is not a substitute for your site hazard assessment, but it helps stakeholders ask better questions before they buy.
| Workplace | Primary hazards | OSHA/EN references | Recommended PPE bundle |
|---|---|---|---|
| Road maintenance | Vehicle visibility, weather, uneven surfaces | OSHA 1926 Subpart G, ANSI/ISEA 107-2020 | Class 3 jacket, hi-vis hoodie, waterproof boots, gloves |
| Warehouse loading | Forklift traffic, wet floors, repetitive walking | OSHA walking-working surfaces, ASTM F2413 | Hi-vis vest, slip-resistant safety footwear, abrasion gloves |
| Fabrication shop | Sparks, metal edges, impact, foot crush | ANSI Z87.1+, ANSI/ISEA 105, ASTM F2413 | FR shirt, cut-resistant gloves, safety glasses, steel toe boots |
| Utility field work | Weather, low light, energized-adjacent tasks | NFPA 70E employer program review, ANSI/ISEA 107 | Hi-vis outerwear, arc-rated review, EH footwear question set |
A growing contractor needed a simpler way to buy seasonal hi-vis layers for day and night crews. The Carhartt program draft separated Class 2 shirts, Class 3 outerwear, rainwear, and boot options by crew role and weather window.
A warehouse group wanted fewer footwear returns. We helped define toe type, slip-resistance questions, size-run planning, and a reorder process for new hires across multiple locations.
A public works team needed durable gear for roads, parks, and utility support. The quote package grouped visibility, cold-weather protection, and footwear notes so supervisors could approve by task group.
Carhartt program language uses standards carefully. OSHA is referenced for workplace compliance duties, not as a product approval body. Product notes focus on applicable consensus standards and documented product features.
Send the work areas, main hazards, climate conditions, and headcount. We will help you organize a starter program for hi-vis workwear and safety footwear that your internal EHS team can review.
