FAQs

• What types of safety signs are there?

  There are many types of workplace safety signs, including:

  • Traffic signs
  • First aid signs
  • Prohibition signs
  • Warehouse signs
  • General information signs
  • Safe condition, such as fire exit signs
• Why are some emergency exit signs 3D?

  Some emergency exit signs are 3D to make them more prominent and readable from a distance. 

  This helps provide clear safety instructions, particularly on outdoor worksites or in areas where sight lines might be obstructed.

• Where should safety signs be in the workplace?

  Most safety signs should be placed at eye level in areas where there are risks to health and safety. 

  However, some safety signs should only be placed in the relevant areas. 

  For example, emergency exit signs should go above doors, and fire extinguisher signs should be placed above fire extinguishers.
