Yes, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires the use of safety vests in certain situations to ensure worker visibility and safety. Specifically, OSHA mandates high-visibility clothing, such as safety vests, for workers exposed to vehicular traffic, construction equipment, and other hazards where visibility is crucial, as outlined in standards like 29 CFR 1926.651(d) for construction and 29 CFR 1910.269(l)(6)(iii) for electrical power generation, transmission, and distribution.
