Danger - People at Work - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

Used to alert passersby, drivers, and other personnel that work activities are taking place in the area that may pose hazards, such as moving machinery, construction operations, or maintenance tasks. The sign communicates that extra caution is required to prevent accidents, injuries, or interference with work activities.

This sign should be placed in construction sites, roadworks, maintenance areas, industrial zones, or any location where workers are present and exposed to potential hazards. It is particularly effective at entrances to work zones, along perimeter fencing, near vehicle or pedestrian access points, and in areas where the work may not be immediately visible. Proper placement ensures that anyone approaching the area is aware of the risk and can adjust their behaviour to maintain safety.

The wording “People at Work” identifies the presence of personnel engaged in potentially hazardous activities, while “Danger” emphasizes the seriousness of the risk. This combination ensures that individuals take appropriate precautions, such as slowing down, staying clear of active zones, or following site-specific safety instructions.

Overall, using this sign is essential for preventing accidents, protecting both workers and the public, and ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations. It promotes awareness of ongoing work activities and reinforces a safety-first culture in environments where personnel are exposed to operational hazards.
