Which safety signs are required for hazardous chemicals in a factory in Australia?

In Australia, hazardous chemical safety signs in a factory are mandatory to ensure workers' safety and comply with the Work Health and Safety (WHS) regulations. Key safety signs include: 1. Dangerous Goods (DG) diamond signs: These indicate the specific class of hazardous chemicals and their hazards, such as flammable, toxic, or corrosive substances. 2. Hazardous Chemical Storage Area signs: Warn about the presence of hazardous chemicals and promote safe handling and storage practices. 3. Emergency Information Panels (EIPs): Display crucial information like the substance's name, UN number, Hazchem code, and emergency contact details. 4. Safety Data Sheet (SDS) location signs: Direct workers to easily accessible safety information about the chemicals in use. By displaying these safety signs, factories can ensure proper hazard communication, promote safe working environments, and adhere to Australian safety regulations.
