The
Psychology Of Colours
| |
|
|
| Colours
play an important role when it comes to safety
signs: |
|
they convey a message & each safety colour
has a specific meaning. |
| The
colour of the sign specifies the nature of
the sign: |
|
|
|
| RED
|
Signs
are Prohibitive. |
|
BLUE
|
Signs
are Mandatory. |
| YELLOW
|
Sign
is Used for
Warnings. |
| GREEN
|
Sign
is Used for Safe Condition & First-aid
Signs. |
| |
|
|
Similar
rules apply to the different shapes:
|
| Prohibitive
& Obligatory Signs are Circular. |
| Warning
Signs are Triangular. |
| Oblong
Signs Offer Help & Directions. |

Safety Sign Regulations. |
| |
From
1st April 1996 the Health and Safety Regulations
1996 came into force. These regulations are based
upon EC Directive 92/58/EEC, a directive for the
minimum requirements for the provision of safety
signs and/or health signs at work.
|
| |
|
Most
important requirements: |
| |
- It
is now a legal requirement that if a risk or
hazard exists, the employer, after appropriate
measures have been taken to reduce or eliminate
that risk or hazard, shall use appropriate safety
signage to advise, warn and instruct personnel
of the nature of the risks - and take the necessary
measures to avoid or protect against them.
- It
is also a requirement that each employer provides
(and ensures that each of their employees receives)
accurate, comprehensible and relevant information
regarding safety signage. Also they must ensure
that suitable and sufficient training is given
in relation to the meaning of safety signs and
the measures needed to be taken in relation
to them.
