| Abstract |
The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1995 implemented a European Council Directive on minimum requirements for the provision of safety signs at work. The Directive standardised safety signs throughout EU member states so that wherever a particular safety sign is seen it provides the same message. The guidance falls into three parts: What the Regulations require; Using safety signs; and Fire safety signs. The Regulations are given in Part 4. The Regulations apply to all workplaces and to all activities where people are employed. This second edition brings references to other publications and legislation up to date. Contents: Introduction; Summary of Regulations; Overall impact of Regulations - summary; Fire safety; Part1: About the Regulations; Part 2: Using safety signs; Part 3: Fire safety signs; Part 4: The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996; References; Useful information. |
