By using safety pictographs, employees and visitors can be made aware of things like fire extinguishers, eyewash kits, emergency exits, smoking bans, disasters, and the need for wearing safety shoes, gloves, or facial protection. This enables proper responses in the event that a serious accident occurs. By alerting others to the safety measures, there is a greater chance that they will be followed. Furthermore, certain pictographs are good for improving recognition.
In addition to the safety of employees and visitors, the safety of the livestock is also very important. The livestock deserve a sanitary living environment for which the company procedures are very important. In the event of an outbreak or just for the enforcement of company protocol, pictographs, barricade tape, and disaster signage can all be useful, if not necessary, aids.
