The PPE Compliance Buyer's Guide for Safety Leaders

Why PPE detection is harder to evaluate than it looks

Most PPE detection demos look the same: a person walks into frame, a box appears around a hard hat, everyone nods. The differences that actually matter — accuracy in low light, performance with obstructed views, how false positives are handled — rarely show up in a five-minute demo.

This guide is meant to give safety leaders a structured way to evaluate PPE detection vendors beyond the demo, based on the questions that tend to surface six months into a deployment rather than in the first sales call.
