These OSHA recognized headers are the more traditional styles of regulatory signs, while the newer ANSI specific pictorial signs are becoming a more recognized style.
Use DANGER to indicate an immediate hazard with a high probability of severe injury or death
Use WARNING to indicate
potentially hazardous situation which could result in serious injury or death
Use CAUTION to indicate a situation which may result in minor or moderate injury but not death
This and similar words, green and white, are used for information like housekeeping, first aid and general safety information.
The newer ANSI specific pictorial signs are useful in situations with multiple languages.
The above signs are usually made of:
Pressure Sensitive Vinyl
Pressure-sensitive backing, flexible and excellent resistance to water and humidity
Rigid Plastic
Tear and crack resistant material, durable indoors and out, low cost alternative to other materials.
Aluminum
Baked enamel on both side, weatherproof and noncorrosive, for permanent indoor and outdoor use.
What is the Clean Indoor Air Act?
The Clean Indoor Air Act (RCW 70.160) is a state law that prohibits smoking in public places and workplaces to protect employees and the public from secondhand smoke. The citizens of Washington approved Initiative 901 (1-901) which expands the Act.
Does the law apply to me?
Beginning Thursday, December 8th, smoking is not allowed in public places or places of employment. “Public place” means any space used by and open to the public. “Places of employment” means any area under the control of a public or private employer through which employees are required to pass during the course of employment.
What does the law require employers to do?
If you operate a public place or place of employment, smoking is not allowed at your establishment effective December 8th, 2005. If you see customers, staff or visitors smoking, you and your staff must tell them not to smoke indoors. Smoking outside your establishment is prohibited within 25 feet of entrances and exits, windows that open, and ventilation intakes.
Do businesses need to post signs?
Yes. A “No Smoking” sign must be conspicuously posted at each entrance as well as in prominent locations in your establishment. Also post signs near entrances, exits, windows and ventilation intakes to advise smokers to move away from those areas to meet the requirements referred to as the “25-Foot Rule”
As always Alpine Fire and Safety Systems is committed to helping you stay compliant in the workplace and carries many styles of “No Smoking” signs and “No Smoking within 25 feet” signs. We can also custom make any sign to fit your particular business needs.
