ISO 20471:2013 specifies requirements for high visibility clothing which is capable of visually signalling the user's presence. The high visibility clothing is intended to provide conspicuity of the wearer in any light condition when viewed by operators of vehicles or other mechanized equipment during daylight conditions and under illumination of headlights in the dark.
Performance requirements are included for colour and retroreflection as well as for the minimum areas and for the placement of the materials in protective clothing.

Hochsichtbare Warnkleidung - Prüfverfahren und Anforderungen (ISO 20471:2013, korrigierte Fassung 2013-06-01)

Diese Internationale Norm legt die Anforderungen an hochsichtbare Warnkleidung fest, die die Anwesenheit des Trägers visuell signalisiert. Die Warnkleidung soll sicherstellen, dass der Träger bei allen Lichtverhältnissen für Fahrzeugführer oder Bediener anderer technischer Ausrüstung auffällig sichtbar ist; sowohl unter Bedingungen bei Tageslicht als auch unter Scheinwerferbeleuchtung in der Dunkelheit. Für weiterführende Angaben zu Risikosituationen siehe Anhang A.
Diese Norm gilt nicht für Situationen mit mittlerem oder niedrigem Risiko.
Es sind Leistungsanforderungen an die Farbe und die Retroreflexion festgelegt sowie an die Mindestflächen und die Anordnung der Schutzkleidungsmaterialien.

Vêtements à haute visibilité - Méthodes d'essai et exigences (ISO 20471:2013, Version corrigée 2013-06-01)

L'ISO 20471:2013 spécifie les exigences que doivent respecter les vêtements à haute visibilité afin de signaler visuellement la présence de l'utilisateur.
