The article of PPE includes at least one sensor configured to generate signals indicative of a sensed variable related to at least one of the worker and the work environment. The article of PPE further includes a processor communicably coupled to the at least one sensor and at least one other article of PPE associated with one other worker. The processor is configured to receive the signals from the at least one sensor. The processor is further configured to determine one or more messages corresponding to the signals. The processor is further configured to transmit the one or more messages directly to the at least one other article of PPE based on at least one of a push communication protocol, a pull communication protocol, and a continuous communication protocol.
