YESCO, a 104-year-old company founded in 1920 by Thomas Young, continues to uphold its legacy of innovation and safety by adopting the Defender Safety H2 Type 2 Safety Helmet. Now led by the fourth generation of the Young family, YESCO remains a prominent force in its industry, and this recent move highlights their commitment to employee safety.
Isaac Gallegos, Safety Director at YESCO, has been instrumental in recommending the adoption of the new helmets. His focus on improving safety standards across the job site has been a driving force in the decision. "We've received positive feedback from our employees about the helmets," said Gallegos. "They not only find them more comfortable but also feel that they significantly enhance overall compliance and safety."
The Defender Safety H2 Type 2 Safety Helmet offers superior protection by guarding against both top and side impacts. This is a major step up from traditional Type 1 helmets, which only provide top impact protection. With the addition of chin straps, the H2 helmets also ensure the helmets stay securely in place during high-risk activities.
YESCO’s adoption of the H2 helmets reinforces their ongoing mission to lead in safety standards, ensuring a safer and more compliant work environment for all employees.
