Occupational Health & Safety: Safety managers give much thought to equipping and training employees for emergency situations and keeping them safe on the job. But when it comes to one critical safety tool -- flashlights -- these same safety professionals may be overlooking the many recent technology innovations and options that are now available to them. By taking the time to understand recent enhancements in flashlight technology, safety personnel can better prepare workers to respond to emergencies and, in general, help maintain a safer working environment.

the concept of giving a flashlight a safety rating is actually a peculiar one considering how simple a tool it is. But i had not considered the hazards that are present in using a flashlight in a potential hazmat situation. Granted I have not found myself in a flammable vapor rich environment so it has never been a concern. It is something new for me to consider because I find myself slightly fascinated with flashlights and try to always keep one on hand.
