FAQ
Is a driver safety zone sign a legal requirement in SA?
Not by name. SA law requires you to control the risk of vehicles and pedestrians mixing, and a driver safety zone is one recognised way to do it. SafeWork SA recommends designating a safety zone for delivery drivers, so the sign supports a duty you already have.
What standard should the sign be built to?
AS 1319-1994 covers the design of workplace safety signs, the colours, symbols and sizing that make them readable and correct. We build to that standard so a mandatory, warning or prohibition sign reads the way people expect at a glance.
Do I need a safety consultant to specify the signs?
For a simple yard, not always. For a busy warehouse or dock, it is common and sensible. A consultant maps your traffic and risks, and we manufacture the coordinated set that plan calls for. We can also come out and walk the site with you.
