The shutdown date is fixed. You need 4,000 coveralls on site three weeks before it.

HSE uniforms: what safety managers should look for before bulk procurement

Six months into a workwear contract, a site HSE officer noticed something wrong with the FR coveralls. The shoulder seams were stitched with standard polyester thread. Not conductive.
