  • Urgent Safety Sign advice needed!

    Posted by Martin C on January 26, 2004 at 9:33 am

    Had a call last night from a customer who’s putting 3 men up the side of a building tomorrow morning and who needs some warning signs to read ‘MEN WORKING OVERHEAD’….

    Does anyone know the standard format, size colour for this sort of thing? Thinking of small A-boards as a quick siting method? Or would Foam boards suffice……….if so is there a minimum size requirement to comply with H&S??

    Also does anyone have a good supplier of workwear and equipment such as Hard hats, High Viz etc., and who supply a comprehensive catalogue for overprinting with our own details. I use ralawise, UK Leisure for standard stuff but need something a bit more targeted.

    Thanks

    An update on this one.

    I bought some blank Yellow folding mini ‘A-Boards’ from a safety wear supplier. The sort of thing they put up in supermarkets, McD’s etc., when they are cleaning the floor. Made up the Danger Men Working Overhead stickers in vinyl and added the company name so they don’t get nicked.

    I’ve been a little dissapointed with Result Hi-Viz from Ralawise which I believe are now made in China but have now found a supplier of Hi-Viz, good quality and good prices.

    be pleased to receive link to davern as well though!! 😀
