Safety and Information Signs - POSHE

Use of Safety Signs 

• The purpose of safety signs
• A range of common safety signs: prohibition, warning, mandatory and safecondition signs in general workplace use

Safety and Information Signs 

Signs combine shape, colour and a pictogram (symbol) to provide specific health and safety information. Being pictographic they are universal, and do not rely on language or the ability to read.

Safety Condition signs are square or rectangular in shape, and have a green background with white pictograms and lettering. Examples of such signs are exit routes and first aid. They mean the safe way to do something.

Warning signs are triangular in shape, with a yellow background, and black pictogram and lettering. They mean danger - proceed with caution

Mandatory signs are circular in shape, with a blue background and white pictogram. They mean "must do". Examples are wear hearing defenders in an ear protection zone.

Prohibited signs are round in shape, with a white background and a red perimeter band and diagonal stripe. The pictogram is black in colour. Examples are No smoking.

Fire equipment signs these are square or rectangular in shape, with a red background and white pictogram. This sign denotes the location of fire fighting equipment.

Illuminated signs and acoustic signals such as alarms, and also verbal and hand signals are also covered in the regulations. We will now look at each of these areas briefly:

Dangerous locations/traffic routes: In places where there is a risk of people or equipment colliding with obstacles, or where objects may fall (i.e. storage facilities), these should be marked with yellow and black, or red and white striped tape or boards.

Traffic routes for internal transport must be clearly identified by continuous coloured lines, preferably, yellow or white.

Illuminated signs: Where such signs are required e.g. on emergency escape routes in the event of an electrical failure, and then these must have a battery back-up.

Use and Storage of Flammable and Combustible Materials:

All materials which present a risk of fire or explosion must be stored, transported and used correctly. This applies to solids (such as magnesium), liquids (such as petroleum and its derivatives, paints, solvents, etc.) and gases (such as hydrogen, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), oxygen).

In use and when being handled in any way, flammable and combustible materials must be treated with great caution. Staff must be aware of the potential dangers for each type of material and the conditions under which they may ignite, and should be trained in the correct procedures to be applied. The containers used for flammable materials should be marked.

Storage areas for flammable and combustible materials should be:

• Detached, secure, single-­storey, ventilated buildings of non-­combustible constructions, used for no other purpose.
• Separate from other parts of the premises.
• Accessible to fire fighters.
• Large enough to allow clear spaces to be maintained around stacks of materials.
• Large enough so that sprinkler systems are not obstructed by stacking up the stored materials too high; there should be a space of at least 0.6 metre below sprinkler heads.
