Construction Site Information Signs

Safety Legislation

Construction Site Information Signs are one of the most important types of sign among our wide range of Construction Signs. Not only are they crucial for maintaining employee safety, but they also cater for the sub-contractors, visitors and the public that may also be present on site.

They are a way to stay compliant with the current laws and regulations such as Health & Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 while also displaying the messages that need to be clearly communicated. Just by knowing what types of dangers one can expect while on a construction site, the chances of an accident happening are considerably diminished.

Safety signs are vital to highlight dangerous areas in the workplace.

The Many Uses of Information Signs

Among our wide range of signs suited for construction environments, you will find we have signs that will help you achieve the following:

• Identify all routes that traffic will use. This is true not only for the traffic that's coming in and out of the construction site, but also for the traffic that will be navigating the construction site itself. Signs such as our “Warning Construction Site/Do Not Exceed 5mph" Signs help to reinforce areas where traffic and pedestrians may meet.


• Deter unauthorised persons. As unlikely as it may sometimes seem, members of the public could potentially end up accessing dangerous areas if there is nothing to prevent them. A good defence against this is to used signs such as our “Warning Construction Site" Signs and “Danger Construction Site/No Unauthorised Access" Signs which make it very clear unauthorised persons should not enter.


• Enforce use of protective equipment. With a large workforce it can be difficult to ensure that everyone wears the correct PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) in the areas it is required. Our range of signs such as our “No Hat No Boots No Job" Safety Sign can help to make it clear to employees and subcontractors that keeping themselves protected is not something to be taken lightly.


• Indicate which hazardous materials are used on site. No matter what you're building, there are bound to be some materials that are inflammable, toxic or otherwise detrimental to one's health and well-being. These should be marked for all to see, so they are extra careful while in their vicinity. Signs such as our “Danger Asbestos" Multi-Message Roll-Top Sign can be easily hung on scaffolding, fencing and skips in areas where such materials may be located.


• Showcase general information. Sometimes you can prevent accidents by clearly informing persons on site of general directions or instructions. By using signs such as our “All Visitors Report to Site Office" Signs and our “Toilets" Banner Signs, you can help to ensure that people do not wander potentially dangerous areas looking for where they need to go. This is especially important for the visitors and subcontractors who are likely unfamiliar with your site.
