Where appropriate, safety signs appear in the rectangular warning boxes in the margins of this manual.
The rectangular warning boxes are laid out vertically (as shown in the examples below) and consist of
four boxes containing messages highlighting:
- Level of seriousness
- Nature of the risk
- The consequences of interaction with the hazard for personnel or products
- Instructions, if necessary, on how to avoid the hazard
The top box contains a warning word
(DANGER-WARNING-CAUTION-ATTENTION)
, which indicates the
level of seriousness of the risk.
The central box contains a drawing indicating the nature of the hazard and the possible consequences,
for personnel or property, of interaction with the hazard. In some cases of hazards to personnel, the
drawing may suggest what preventive measures can be taken, such as wearing protective clothing, for
example.
The bottom box may contain a message with instructions on how to avoid the hazard. In the case of
hazards to personnel, the message may also contain a more precise definition of the hazard and its
consequences for personnel.
1) DANGER - Immediate hazard, definitely capable of causing serious injury
or death.
