Paying the price, in more ways than you think!
Think safety signs are all the same? Think again. You might be exposing your organization to unwanted liability risks. Not all sign companies specialize in safety regulations or adhere to strict manufacturing specifications. In fact, you'd be surprised as to how many sign shops advertise the fact that they sell traffic & safety signs, however, upon closer examination they fail to meet compliance regulations by a long shot.
The fact of the matter is, many sign companies don't meet 'safety regulations' even though they may claim to have decades of experience. Understanding safety...
If there is a danger of a worker or equipment falling into an excavation, an employer must ensure that workers are made aware of the excavation. Safety awareness is achieved by placing warning signage in the surrounding area, flagging any possible entry points and placing barricades which prevent access to the excavation. Even if your construction site is considered a restricted area, it's possible for ATV's, snowmobiles and pedestrians to enter the job site after hours.

Recently we were on-site doing a safety signs audit at a clients heavy truck wash bay. We came across one of our manufactured signs which was covered in bitumen (crude oil). Bitumen is an extremely thick product which has a waxy, tar-like texture and it's very difficult to wash off. It repels water similar to a stained deck in a rain storm. After attempting to clean the sign with a soapy rag it was clear we would need strong chemicals to breakdown the crude oil.
We used Varsol (paint thinner) to scrub the sign clean. It was no surprise that our sign could withstand such a strong chemical agent without degrading or dissolving...
