How often should safety signs in an Australian factory be inspected and updated?

In Australian factories, regular inspection and updating of safety signs are crucial to maintain a safe working environment. While there's no specific timeframe mandated by the Australian Standards (AS 1319), it's best practice to conduct inspections at least every six months. Factors such as wear and tear, changes in workplace conditions, or updated regulations may necessitate more frequent checks. Ensure your safety signs comply with the current Work Health and Safety (WHS) regulations and are clear, visible, and relevant to the hazards present. Regularly reviewing and updating your factory's safety signs is essential to maintaining a secure and compliant workplace for all employees.
