FAQ's

What does the Workplace Safety Signs collection cover?

It covers the range of safety signs used across general workplace environments. This includes hazard warnings, procedural reminders, PPE requirements, restricted area notices, emergency information, and general safety rules.

Who needs workplace safety signs?

Every business with employees working on-site needs workplace safety signs. This includes manufacturing plants, warehouses, offices, retail spaces, restaurants, construction sites, schools, and healthcare facilities. The specific signs required depend on the hazards and activities present in each space.

Are these signs OSHA compliant?

Yes, StickerJet workplace safety signs are designed to meet OSHA 29 CFR 1910.145 specifications and follow ANSI Z535 formatting where applicable. Using signs that meet these standards is the straightforward way to satisfy OSHAs requirements, for accident-prevention signage in a general industry workplace.

Where do workplace safety signs typically go?

They go at building and room entrances, on equipment and machinery, at emergency exits and evacuation routes in break rooms and common areas near first aid stations and fire suppression equipment and anywhere a safety rule needs to be communicated clearly and permanently.

How do we figure out which signs we actually need?

A formal workplace hazard assessment is the starting point. Walk through every area of the facility, identify the hazards and rules that apply in each space and match a sign to each one. OSHAs General Duty Clause requires employers to communicate known hazards. That process of identification is where the sign selection starts.

How often should workplace safety signs be reviewed?

Review workplace safety signs whenever something changes in the facility, when equipment is added or removed, when processes change or when an incident reveals a hazard that was not previously communicated. An annual walkthrough to check that signs are still accurate, readable and correctly placed is practice.
