Safety posters with artwork can be incredibly powerful motivators in the workplace when the message is on target. Vibrant, visual safety messages remind employees that management insists safety comes first and all workers should use the safety skills they have learned in training, no matter the task.
Safety posters provide a quick message to your employees. It can alert them to important hazards and safety concerns within your facility. Therefore annual safety training and/or weekly meetings, refresher courses and on-the-job training are all crucial elements for your workplace safety and health program. Reinforcement is critical to maintaining a safe work environment. Hanging safety posters, safety banners, safety wall stickers and floor decals in key places emphasize your most important safety messages quickly, every day. Sharing safety concepts and best practices that workers have already heard, or been exposed to, is the best way to reinforce great safety habits on the job.
Safety posters and safety banners are proven to help decrease on-the-job accidents. Location is important when you are considering where to place a safety poster or banner. Hanging an easy-to-read safety poster or safety banner that emphasizes hazard or safety tip in critical work areas gives workers easy reminders of vital information at the exact moment they need it. Informational safety posters should repeat ideas that employees have already been exposed to during safety training as well as introduce safety concerns to new employees and visitors. When a work environment tends to get hectic or overwhelming, safety posters and safety banners become even more necessary for the overall safety of your employees and facility.
Safety posters and banners are a great way to showcase your company’s commitment to safety. Every company should not only have a written safety policy that is communicated to all employees, but reinforced throughout the year. Finding innovative ways for management to demonstrate their continual commitment to safety is vital. Cultivating a safety-minded workforce can be accomplished by investing in high-quality artwork like motivational and/or informational safety posters, safety banners, safety wall decals and safety floor stickers that include a particular workplace safety message. Doing this reinforces safety as a company value throughout the year.
Safety Posters Carry the Safety Message Outside of Work
Safety posters and safety banners often carry the safety message outside of the workplace. When safety is an organizational value, it becomes absorbed into the fabric of the workplace culture. The significance of safety doesn’t just stop when employees head home for the day. If safety is reinforced throughout the workday, with the help of safety signage, then employees are more likely to continue safe habits when working offsite and even after they go home at the end of the workday. You always want your employees to get home safely, but also want them back the next day adding value to your company!
Show your company’s commitment to workplace safety by featuring an important safety message as statement piece in your corporate office, conference room, lobby or meeting space. You can also hang safety posters and safety banners in your warehouse, workshop, lab, break room or waiting area.

Safety Banners: Fire Safety and Prevention in an Industrial Facility
CLICK HERE for our NEW safety store, Safety Banners USA (safetybannersUSA.com)
Fire safety is a universal concern amongst most industries throughout the world so it’s very important that employers train their workers about the various fire hazards within their workplace and what measures should be taken in the event a fire emergency happens. Fire safety awareness and prevention is everyone’s responsibility and should be part of all employee’s day-to-day job duties. Many companies use fire Safety banners to improve employee communication about fire safety.
There should be a clear and concise fire safety plan that outlines the steps to take if a fire happens plus fire evacuation procedures and fire safety warnings to help prevent fires altogether. Fire safety banners, fire safety posters, fire safety wall decals and fire safety floor stickers are an ideal way to showcase these warnings and prevention methods throughout your facility.
Fire safety awareness starts with you as the employer. Start by equipping your facility with items such as fire extinguishers and smoke detectors. These should be checked on a regular basis so that they always remain in proper working condition. Make sure the fire safety equipment is clearly labeled and noted throughout the building by utilizing fire safety posters and fire safety wall decals. These can be enlarged and made clearly visible for everyone to see. Ample fire safety signage allows for quicker response times in the event of a fire.
Unfortunately, accidents do happen from time to time, so creating an evacuation plan is one of the most important elements in preparing your employees for industrial fire safety. It is crucial that a plan is in place should the worst occur. Once you have your fire evacuation plan in place, it’s imperative that all workers are aware of your fire evacuation plan and it’s even more helpful if you assign or hire an employee to act as your company’s safety officer to oversee and keep your fire safety measures up to date.
Once the fire evacuation plan and training are implemented throughout your company, the most effective way for fire safety to stay forefront in the mind of your employees is through visual reminders displayed throughout your facility. Again, this is where fire safety banners, fire safety posters, fire safety wall decals and fire safety floor stickers with not only words, but images depicting fire safety warnings and instructions can be a daily reminder to practice fire safety. This can often be the “life saver” your company needs should an emergency arise.
