Decals and labels are an effective way to identify assets, label packages, and in many cases a requirement to communicate safety messages. Warning and safety notifications are required by several regulating agencies for commercial equipment. These agencies may have specific requirements for certain conditions. Type of font, font size, reflective materials, copy colors and background colors. You can help prevent losses and accidents by marking equipment and business assets with quality, easy-to-apply safety decals that last.
Safety and Warning labels have several crucial purposes:
1. To Help Reduce the Risk of Injury
New employees or people who are not familiar with the business’ layout have an increased risk of injuring themselves simply because they’re not fully aware of the risks. If you take the initiative and install bold, clear safety decals and warning labels, you’re decreasing the chances of someone injuring themselves. This risk reduction is good for your employee’s health as well as good for your business’s bottom line because you won’t have to pay out workman’s compensation payments or try to scramble to find people to cover the injured employee’s shifts.
2. Maintain Compliance with Regulating Agencies
OSHA regulates and requires businesses to have warning labels and safety decals on certain things to stay in compliance with state and national standards. For example, if your business manufactures or ships hazardous chemicals, you’re required to label them all properly by industry standards.
3. Help Identify Safety Equipment
At the time you may need a specific piece of safety equipment, speed is of the utmost importance to resolve the safety situation. Many times employees don’t think about specific safety equipment or where you keep it until they need it or you’re conducting a drill. Having your equipment properly labeled with safety decals to help direct your employees to said equipment can increase response times. This is also an easy and cost-effective way to make business more organized.
