Warn people of water hazards where there is a risk of drowning. This includes lakes, rivers, ponds, reservoirs, quarries, canals, or any body of water where swimming, wading, or accidental falls could be life-threatening. The sign alerts visitors, workers, and the public to exercise caution and take necessary safety precautions around the water.
This sign should be placed at all entrances, access points, and along the perimeter of dangerous water bodies, especially where people are likely to approach or cross the area. Key locations include riverbanks, lakefronts, quarries, dock edges, reservoirs, and areas near flood-prone zones. Proper placement ensures that anyone near the water is immediately aware of the risk and can take appropriate measures, such as supervising children, wearing life jackets, or avoiding the area entirely.
By clearly communicating the drowning risk, the sign helps prevent accidents, promotes safe behaviour, and supports compliance with health and safety regulations. It also serves as a visual reminder for staff, visitors, and contractors to stay vigilant when around hazardous water.
Overall, using this sign is essential for protecting lives, reducing the risk of water-related accidents, and maintaining a safe environment in areas with deep or fast-moving water. It provides clear, immediate guidance to prevent drowning incidents.
