The installation of fire safety signs is part of an employer’s responsibility under the law to ensure, so far as is possible, their employees’ and the general public’s health, safety and welfare at work.
Under UK Health and Safety laws it is an employer’s duty to:
Make the workplace safe and without risks to health to employees and the public – the use of safety signs can alert people to hazards, and show safety procedures
Ensure plant and machinery are safe and that safe systems of work are set and followed – correct signs can show safe working rules and regulations
Ensure articles and substances are moved, stored and used safely – your signage can immediately notify persons of any substance hazard
There are a number of styles of fire safety signs. The use of a certain type depends on the message that the sign carries.

Fire exit signs
A fire exit is an additional route that occupants would use to enter or leave a building. The obligations under Fire Precaution and Health and Safety at Work Regulations and Legislation recommend that from any given point within a building, occupants can easily identify their nearest safe escape route. The use, application and correct sitting of signs can make a major contribution to the effectiveness of good fire safety management!
