Why do I need safety signs?
Safety signs keep teachers, students and faculty safe when on your school’s campus. They can reduce accidents, enforce school rules and make sure your building is compliant with local, state and federal regulatory codes.
What kinds of safety signs are required for compliance on educational campuses?
Most signage guidelines for schools are established at the local and state levels. For more information on local regulating agencies, visit the U.S. Department of Education website. If your school is storing any hazardous chemical cleaning products or if your campus includes a chemistry lab, kitchen, auto shop or other potentially hazardous environment, you may need to follow OSHA, ANSI and ISO safety signage guidelines.
