The Australian standard is AS/NZS 4602.1:2011 — High Visibility Safety Garments. All compliant safety vests must also meet AS/NZS 1906.4 for retroreflective materials.
Class D (Day) vests use fluorescent fabric only and are suitable for daytime, lower-risk environments. Class R (Roadwork) vests feature higher retroreflective tape coverage and are required for workers on or near live traffic lanes, mining sites and other high-risk environments.

Replace a vest when retroreflective tape becomes worn, cracked or separated; when the fluorescent fabric has faded significantly; or when the garment is physically damaged. AS/NZS 4602.1 specifies minimum luminance values — a vest that no longer meets these is non-compliant.
