Safety Signs and Symbols

Safety signs and symbols are visual tools designed to communicate important safety information quickly and effectively. They use images, colors, and shapes to alert you to hazards, indicate safety equipment, or provide instructions. For example, a red circle with a slash shows something is not allowed, while a green sign indicates safety or first aid. Recognizing these signs helps prevent accidents, protect health, and promote safe behavior in workplaces, public spaces, and homes. They are standardized so that everyone can understand them, regardless of language or background, ensuring a safer environment for all.
