Safety Banners: Hazard Communication in an Industrial Facility

Hazard Communication is vitally important to facilities that deal with chemicals and other hazardous materials.  Hazard communication is most commonly conveyed through signage, labels and safety data sheets.  Safety banners, safety posters, safety floor and safety wall stickers are the best way to display hazard communication to your employees while also satisfying OSHA safety requirements for your business.  Keeping your hazard communication signage up to date is imperative for the safety of your employees and customers.  It also allows for increased productivity improvements and cost savings within your facility.

To ensure chemical safety in the workplace, proper hazard communication signage such as safety banners, safety posters and safety decals are the best way to provide information that identifies the chemicals present as well as the hazards associated with each chemical.  This is achieved through proper Hazard Communication and is required within OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard (HCS).  OSHA requires any company that manufactures or imports chemicals to evaluate the hazards and display the hazard communication information clearly for all employees and customers to see.  This is one of the reasons why clear and concise hazard communication is so important for everyone’s safety. 

Correct and identifiable hazard communication classification conveys specific criteria for health and physical safety hazards by using words, symbols and pictograms.  It is very important that you have a hazard communication statement present for each class and category of chemical hazard present in your facility.  This is where safety banners, safety posters and safety decals can become a vital asset in achieving your hazard communication goals. 

Safety banners, safety posters, safety wall stickers and durable safety floor decals are an excellent way to visually display the particular hazard communications within your facility.  Once you have the appropriate hazard communication in place, you will increase employee safety and decrease potentially dangerous activities that cause accidents which will reduce liability for your facility business and allow for a safe, happy and productive workplace.
