High-visibility will always be a favorite workwear choice because it helps lessen accidents occurring from poor vision. Australia requires its workers to wear hi-vis clothing to ensure safety and asks that companies comply with their standards. Top hi-vis brands like DNC, Bisley, and JB’s Wear employ strict quality control processes to make sure they meet the highest AU/NZS standards.

Many manufacturers are exploring new kinds of technology to develop workwear. AS Colour, for example, has committed itself to promote sustainable cotton production through the Better Cotton Initiative. Meanwhile, other technologies hope to improve efficiency and create better products, like Biz Collection’s wrinkle-resistant fabric, King Gee’s cooling garments, and Hard Yakka’s ShieldTec range with built-in heat protection features.

Because workwear is something people wear daily, how well it fits will always be most important. Good workwear should withstand the elements and unique conditions that employees are exposed to in the workplace. It would be in the company’s best interest if the clothes they invest in will last for a long time. In Australia, polo shirts or collared shirts are the go-to pieces for office wear as it looks polished and put-together without sacrificing comfort.
