Notice Signs
In Australia, notice signs are a crucial component of road signage that convey important information, warnings, or regulatory instructions to drivers and pedestrians. These signs use standardised symbols, colours, and shapes to provide clear and easily understandable messages to road users. The following notice signs are not mentioned within AS1319, however we have included these as they may prove to be very useful from a security perspective and to warn of employer expectations. These notice signs are designed to have the word “NOTICE” in white in front of a blue bar background located at the top of the sign. Underneath this heading are the general texts that warns pedestrians with texts like “No Entry Unless Authorised” or “Wash Hands Before Returning To Work”. See example to the right:
The additional Security Notice signs provide a highly visible warning to thieves, shoplifters, criminals, and vandals – an ideal deterrent for all areas of your facility. They are used in areas where covert cameras are not easily visible. They form an integral part of a site’s security system whilst reassuring customers, visitors, and employees.
It is worth noting that the design and wording of security notice signs may vary, but they generally adhere to standard conventions for visual communication to ensure clarity and understanding. Additionally, in Australia, signs must comply with relevant state and federal regulations, including those related to workplace safety and public safety. Always pay close attention to security notice signs, and follow the instructions provided to ensure your safety and the safety of others.
These surveillance signs often feature a pictogram of a camera and may include text such as “No Unauthorised Persons Beyond This Point” or “This Area Is Under 24 Hour TV Surveillance Trespassers Will Be Prosecuted”.
