For Metal we have been looking at different safety signs and what they mean. We have been looking at a main three safety signs that you would potentially see at a work place. 

Hazard: A hazard is something that could injure or potentially kill you. A hazard can be like dust that could get into your eyes, A gas leak or even an electrical fault within an area.



Here are the three main signs we have been looking at:

Hazard                         

This sign means that there is a potential chance of slipping over

You could scan the area for any wet or slippery surfaces.You can put a wet floor sign down in front of the slippery surface and you can also block off the area too public or worker use. 

Prohibited:

This sign is telling you too not use your phone. 

This could be because you could be using your phone and there is a chance or a spark occurring and that
spark is a perfect ignition source for any fumes in the area.

You could prevent this from happening by not using your phone.

Mandatory:
This sign is telling you to wear a harness when working because if you don't there is a potential chance of falling and hurting yourself.  You could prevent this from happening by wearing a harness.
