Danger - Asbestos - No Unauthorised Persons - No Smoking - Eating or Drinking - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

Warn individuals about the serious hazards associated with asbestos. It clearly communicates that only authorised personnel may enter the area and that smoking, eating, or drinking is strictly prohibited, helping prevent the ingestion or inhalation of asbestos fibers, which can cause severe respiratory illnesses and other health issues.

These signs are particularly important in construction sites, renovation projects, demolition areas, industrial facilities, and laboratories where asbestos-containing materials are present or may be disturbed. By placing the sign at entrances or around the work zone, anyone approaching the area is made aware of the risks and required precautions before entry.

In addition to protecting health, the sign helps organisations comply with occupational health and safety regulations. Controlling access and prohibiting unsafe behaviours like eating or smoking reduces the risk of contamination, supports safe working practices, and minimises liability for the employer.

For maximum effectiveness, the sign should be prominently displayed at all entry points to asbestos-containing areas, at eye level and clearly visible from a distance. Bold, clear wording and hazard symbols ensure that personnel immediately recognize the danger and follow proper safety protocols, maintaining a controlled and safe work environment.

This sign states: ASBESTOS AREA - Danger, Asbestos - No unauthorised persons beyond this point - No smoking - No eating or drinking
