Warning signs
Warning signs, also known as hazard signs, are used to inform people of a hazard and can be identified by their colour and shape; a yellow triangle with a black border. To learn more, read our guide to construction warning signs.
Mandatory sign
A construction mandatory sign is used to display an action which must be taken to ensure safety. They use a blue circle with white images or text depicting the action. These also include construction personal protective equipment signs, which communicate the need for appropriate equipment to be worn on site to ensure safety. To learn which types of these signs apply to your business, read our guide to the regulations of PPE in construction.
Prohibition sign
A construction prohibition sign is used to display an action which must not be performed to ensure safety. These use a red circle with a line through the centre, and often incorporate an additional red panel with white text for further information.
Fire safety signs
Fire safety signs can refer to fire fighting equipment or fire safety procedures, and are coloured red or green respectively. To learn more about the requirements of fire safety signs in your construction business, read our guide to fire safety signs.
Are site safety signs required by law?
Yes, site safety signs are required by law. There are several pieces of legislation which pertain to the installation and maintenance of construction site signs, including the Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 (HSR) and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRFSO). The former details the correct types and locations of safety signs that must be used in workplaces, while the latter focuses specifically on fire safety measures. Complying with these regulations ensures accountability and provides evidence that every reasonable measure has been taken to protect the safety of employees and visitors to your construction site.
