Dial up compliance with safety glasses workers want to wear

Dial up compliance with safety glasses workers want to wear
4:33

Construction workers know they should wear the right eyewear to protect their eyes from hazards. So, why don’t they?

It often comes down to workers finding safety glasses don’t suit their face shape, fog up and feel uncomfortable to wear throughout long shifts. They know safety is important, but they don’t want to compromise on style either. When PPE eyewear doesn’t work for them, workers are tempted to ditch it. There goes compliance!

A range of solutions from Bollé Safety.

Bollé Safety has a range of PPE eyewear, and offers a Decision Guide to provide guidance on the most suitable options for different tasks and site conditions.

With high-tech lens coatings, comfortable, stylish frames in different colours and lens tints to suit indoor, outdoor and changing light, all Bollé Safety eyewear is AS/NZS Certified. There are even options for workers who need prescription safety glasses. These are safety glasses designed to be comfortable to wear, day in and day out!

High-quality STKS glasses for trendsetters.

Popular with younger workers looking for safety and style, the STKS range comes with Bollé Safety’s PLATINUM anti-fog and anti-scratch double-sided lens protection. STKS lenses are available in clear, smoke with PLATINUM, and polarised and cobalt blue flash tints. Clear lenses are ideal for stable lighting indoors, smoke are great outdoors and the polarised lenses help cut glare reflecting off hard metal or concrete surfaces. STKS also feature clear side shields that offer protection, without impacting peripheral vision.

STKS work just as well for a trip to the pub as on site, and are ideal for carpenters, plumbers, general trades, road crews and any construction worker looking for eye-catching protection.

A SEAMLESS shift to prescriptions.

Using Bollé Safety’s SEAMLESS VISION platform, workers who wear prescriptions can also get custom safety glasses made to suit their individual needs. On the platform, they can try on virtual frames, choose lens tints then upload their prescription in one easy process.

The SEAMLESS range is designed for workers who find OTG safety glasses too bulky.
