What is the proper placement of safety signs in a warehouse?

The proper placement of safety signs in a warehouse is crucial for maintaining a safe work environment and ensuring compliance with Australian regulations. To optimise visibility and effectiveness, signs should be positioned at eye level, in well-lit areas, and near potential hazards or high-traffic zones. Key locations include entrances, exits, pedestrian walkways, forklift routes, and areas with heavy machinery or hazardous substances. Additionally, ensure signs are easily readable from a safe distance and utilise universally recognised symbols, colours, and text. Regularly review and update sign placement to accommodate changes in the warehouse layout or operations. By adhering to these guidelines, you'll promote worker safety and minimise potential accidents in your warehouse.
