Some of those are legit OSHA compliant.

    Possibly not for much longer. I see those stupid cowboy hat hard hats worn by GCs on occasion, but more and more I’ve seen a push by safety for Type II, side impact rated, hard hats. Pretty soon everyone’s might need to use the rock climbing looking hard hats with the chin strap.

    Just got done with a hurricane in NW Florida. Line guys from all over the US were wearing similar helmets.

    They just make sense. Like if you’re just wearing a standard type 1 hard hat, and you fall, your hard hat isn’t staying on your head. Plus type 2 are side impact rated, which is the main feature.
