Description
A Heated Vest can help reduce the pain and numbness from winter time outdoor work.
Working outdoors during the cold weather months can be difficult for workers with endurance disabilities. Keeping warm while outside requires a great deal of energy, which will lower the amount of energy the worker has for his tasks. Anyone who sits in an unheated tractor or skid steer can be even more affected due to a lock of movement. A Heated Vest can keep the worker warm, saving that energy for working!
A farmer working outside in the winter could wear a Heated Vest while driving the skid steer used to clean the barn.
Workers with Raynaud’s can also benefit from the use of a heated vest to keep themselves warm.
Here’s some information on Raynauds’s:
