What are the Australian standards for safety signs in distribution centres?

The Australian standards for safety signs in distribution centres are outlined in AS 1319-1994, which provides guidelines for the design, usage, and placement of various safety signs. These signs are crucial for maintaining a safe working environment, reducing workplace hazards, and ensuring proper communication of safety information. The standard categorises safety signs into six main types: mandatory, prohibition, warning, danger, emergency information, and fire safety. Each type has its own distinct colour scheme, shape, and symbols for easy identification. Compliance with AS 1319-1994 ensures that employees and visitors in distribution centres are well-informed about potential risks and can take appropriate measures to protect themselves and others.
