What is the correct size and placement for safety signs in an Australian factory?

The correct size and placement for safety signs in an Australian factory depend on various factors, including the factory layout, visibility, and local regulations. Generally, safety signs should be large enough to be easily seen and read from a safe distance by workers. They should be placed in prominent locations, such as near hazards, at entry points, or along walkways, ensuring clear visibility without obstruction. Following Australian Standard AS 1319-1994 for safety signs, it's crucial to comply with size, colour, and design requirements to maintain a safe and compliant work environment. Regularly inspect and update your safety signs to ensure their effectiveness in promoting a hazard-free factory.
