Good info, thanks again.  I’ve been trying to find other companies’ data, but 
even with the abundance that is the interwebs, I’ve had little luck so far.  I 
am however settling in on something along these lines:

o    Cones must be placed in front and behind vehicle, greater than 5’ away, no 
further than 1’ x MPH of roadway, or a distance deemed necessary for 
environment and driving conditions.

o    Cones must be placed in front and behind vehicle, 3’-10’ away, when 
working in non-roadway areas.

o    Class II Hi-Vis Apparel must be worn when working within 15’ of any 
roadway with traffic speeds of 1-40MPH

o    Class III Hi-Vis Apparel must be worn when working within 15’ of any 
roadway with traffic speeds of 40+MPH

No, the cone is purely to force them to walk behind the vehicle when leaving so 
they don’t squish the customer’s kids.

Thanks,  Do you specify to the employee the distance of cone?  IE: 1’*MPH of 
roadway? or 10’ or anything like that?

Not sure I have written it down.  If in a public ROW, hard hats and orange 
vests must be worn.
If in a UDOT ROW then amber blinky light on top must be used.

Cones behind the truck at every stop.

Does anyone have pre-drafted Safety Policies?  We have a tower climbing policy 
and workplace policy, but I’m looking to implement a ‘traffic’ safety one.  
Something along the lines of when and where to use Hi-Vis clothing, cones, etc. 
 Anyone have an example you’d share of anything like this?

Thank you,
