    Accident Prevention Signs and Tags

    DANGER signs

    The DANGER header is used when there is a hazardous situation which has a high probability of death or severe injury. It should not be considered for property damage unless personal injury risk is present.

    There shall be no variation in the type of design of signs posted to warn of specific dangers and radiation hazards. All employees shall be instructed that danger signs indicate immediate danger and that special precautions are necessary.

    CAUTION signs

    The CAUTION header is used to indicate a hazardous situation which may result in minor or moderate injury. However, Caution should not be used when there is a possibility of death or serious injury. Caution should not be considered for property damage accidents unless personal injury risk is present.

    Caution signs shall be used only to warn against potential hazards or to caution against unsafe practices. (ii) All employees shall be instructed that caution signs indicate a possible hazard against which proper precaution should be taken.

    SAFETY instruction signs

    General Safety Signs (SAFETY FIRST, BE CAREFUL, THINK) should indicate general instructions relative to safe work practices, reminders of proper safety procedures, and the location of safety equipment.

    Safety instruction signs shall be used where there is a need for general instructions and suggestions relative to safety measures.

    Notice headers provide information of a general type in order to avoid confusion or misunderstanding.

    BIOLOGICAL Hazard signs.

    The biological hazard warning shall be used to signify the actual or potential presence of a biohazard and to identify equipment, containers, rooms, materials, experimental animals, or combinations thereof, which contain, or are contaminated with, viable hazardous agents.

    For the purpose of this subparagraph the term "biological hazard," or "biohazard," shall include only those infectious agents presenting a risk or potential risk to the well-being of man.

    SLOW-MOVING vehicle emblem

    This emblem consists of a fluorescent yellow-orange triangle with a dark red reflective border. The yelloworange fluorescent triangle is a highly visible color for daylight exposure. The reflective border defines the shape of the fluorescent color in daylight and creates a hollow red triangle in the path of motor vehicle headlights at night. The emblem is intended as a unique identification for, and it shall be used only on, vehicles which by design move slowly (25 m.p.h. or less) on the public roads.
