Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).

Introduction
There is a need to standardize a system of providing safety information that relies as little as possible
on the use of words to achieve understanding.
Continued growth in international trade, travel and mobility of labour requires a common method of
communicating safety information.
Lack of standardization may lead to confusion and the risk of accidents.
The use of standardized safety signs does not replace proper work methods, instructions and accident
prevention training or measures. Education is an essential part of any system that provides safety
information.
The safety signs are intended for use only where there is a risk to people. They may appear in safety
signage in workplaces and public areas, safety manuals and notices, product labelling and escape and
evacuation plans, as appropriate.
This document is intended to be used by all Technical Committees within ISO charged with developing
specific safety signing for their industry, to ensure that there is only one safety sign for each safety
meaning. It is also intended that this document be revised regularly to include safety signs as they are
standardized by ISO, and which conform to the design principles given in the ISO 3864 series.
The safety signs in this document have been validated by ISO/TC 145/SC 2 according to procedures of
standardization current at the time of publication.
NOTE 1 Some countries' statutory regulations might differ in some respects from those given in this
document.
NOTE 2 Information on procedures, criteria of acceptability, safety sign templates and application of safety
signs, as well as translations of the referents, can be found at http:// www .iso .org/ tc145/ sc2.

4.3 Categorization of safety signs
Safety signs are categorized according to their function as follows:
— E is the category for signs indicating an evacuation route, the location of safety equipment or a
safety facility, or a safety action (safe condition signs);
— F is the category for fire equipment signs;
— M is the category for mandatory action signs;
— P is the category for prohibition signs;
— W is the category for warning signs.
Table 2 summarizes the registered safety signs in terms of safety sign category in accordance with
ISO 3864-1.

5 Registered safety signs
Tables 3 to 7 give safety sign originals in a uniform 70 mm size with corner marks to enable accurate
enlargement and reduction scaling. The sign illustrations are shown without borders in order to allow for
consistent reproduction scaling, though a border can be useful to achieve a luminance contrast between
the safety sign and its background when mounted or displayed. The safety signs should be reproduced
exactly as shown in Tables 3 to 7. However, some degree of graphical modification is permitted when
cultural differences or special application formats need to be considered, provided the original meaning
is retained and comprehension of the safety sign is maintained. Consistent reproduction and use of these
safety signs will lead to a progressively improved degree of comprehension at the international level.
In cases where the orientation of the graphical symbol is not essential to the meaning of the safety sign,
the graphical symbol may be reproduced in a mirrored form. For prohibition signs, it is essential that
the prohibition bar does not obscure significant details of the graphical symbol.

Introduction
There is a need to standardize a system of providing safety information that relies as little as possible
on the use of words to achieve understanding.
Continued growth in international trade, travel and mobility of labour requires a common method of
communicating safety information.
Lack of standardization may lead to confusion and the risk of accidents.
The use of standardized safety signs does not replace proper work methods, instructions and accident
prevention training or measures. Education is an essential part of any system that provides safety
information.
The safety signs are intended for use only where there is a risk to people. They may appear in safety
signage in workplaces and public areas, safety manuals and notices, product labelling and escape and
evacuation plans, as appropriate.
This document is intended to be used by all Technical Committees within ISO charged with developing
specific safety signing for their industry, to ensure that there is only one safety sign for each safety
meaning. It is also intended that this document be revised regularly to include safety signs as they are
standardized by ISO, and which conform to the design principles given in the ISO 3864 series.
The safety signs in this document have been validated by ISO/TC 145/SC 2 according to procedures of
standardization current at the time of publication.
NOTE 1 Some countries' statutory regulations might differ in some respects from those given in this
document.
NOTE 2 Information on procedures, criteria of acceptability, safety sign templates and application of safety
signs, as well as translations of the referents, can be found at http: //www .iso .org/tc145/sc2.

4.3 Categorization of safety signs
Safety signs are categorized according to their function as follows:
— E is the category for signs indicating an evacuation route, the location of safety equipment or a
safety facility, or a safety action (safe condition signs);
— F is the category for fire equipment signs;
— M is the category for mandatory action signs;
— P is the category for prohibition signs;
— W is the category for warning signs.
Table 2 summarizes the registered safety signs in terms of safety sign category in accordance with
ISO 3864-1.

5 Registered safety signs
Tables 3 to 7 give safety sign originals in a uniform 70 mm size with corner marks to enable accurate
enlargement and reduction scaling. The sign illustrations are shown without borders in order to allow for
consistent reproduction scaling, though a border can be useful to achieve a luminance contrast between
the safety sign and its background when mounted or displayed. The safety signs should be reproduced
exactly as shown in Tables 3 to 7. However, some degree of graphical modification is permitted when
cultural differences or special application formats need to be considered, provided the original meaning
is retained and comprehension of the safety sign is maintained. Consistent reproduction and use of these
safety signs will lead to a progressively improved degree of comprehension at the international level.
In cases where the orientation of the graphical symbol is not essential to the meaning of the safety sign,
the graphical symbol may be reproduced in a mirrored form. For prohibition signs, it is essential that
the prohibition bar does not obscure significant details of the graphical symbol.
NOTE The graphical symbol is the complete image containing all the graphical symbol elements as shown in
the registered safety sign.
Where a registered safety sign is not available to indicate a particular desired meaning, the meaning
shall be obtained either by developing a new safety sign following the design principles of ISO 3864-1
and ISO 3864-3 or by using the appropriate general sign (ISO 7010-M001, ISO 7010-P001, ISO 7010-
W001), together with supplementary safety information.
Tables 3 to 7 give a description of the application of each safety sign and present the safety sign originals
according to their category as follows:

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).

Introduction
There is a need to standardize a system of providing safety information that relies as little as possible
on the use of words to achieve understanding.
Continued growth in international trade, travel and mobility of labour requires a common method of
communicating safety information.
Lack of standardization may lead to confusion and the risk of accidents.
The use of standardized safety signs does not replace proper work methods, instructions and accident
prevention training or measures. Education is an essential part of any system that provides safety
information.
The safety signs are intended for use only where there is a risk to people. They may appear in safety
signage in workplaces and public areas, safety manuals and notices, product labelling and escape and
evacuation plans, as appropriate.
This document is intended to be used by all Technical Committees within ISO charged with developing
specific safety signing for their industry, to ensure that there is only one safety sign for each safety
meaning. It is also intended that this document be revised regularly to include safety signs as they are
standardized by ISO, and which conform to the design principles given in the ISO 3864 series.
The safety signs in this document have been validated by ISO/TC 145/SC 2 according to procedures of
standardization current at the time of publication.
NOTE 1 Some countries' statutory regulations might differ in some respects from those given in this
document.
NOTE 2 Information on procedures, criteria of acceptability, safety sign templates and application of safety
signs, as well as translations of the referents, can be found at http: //www .iso .org/tc145/sc2.

4.3 Categorization of safety signs
Safety signs are categorized according to their function as follows:
— E is the category for signs indicating an evacuation route, the location of safety equipment or a
safety facility, or a safety action (safe condition signs);
— F is the category for fire equipment signs;
— M is the category for mandatory action signs;
— P is the category for prohibition signs;
— W is the category for warning signs.
Table 2 summarizes the registered safety signs in terms of safety sign category in accordance with
ISO 3864-1.

5 Registered safety signs
Tables 3 to 7 give safety sign originals in a uniform 70 mm size with corner marks to enable accurate
enlargement and reduction scaling. The sign illustrations are shown without borders in order to allow for
consistent reproduction scaling, though a border can be useful to achieve a luminance contrast between
the safety sign and its background when mounted or displayed. The safety signs should be reproduced
exactly as shown in Tables 3 to 7. However, some degree of graphical modification is permitted when
cultural differences or special application formats need to be considered, provided the original meaning
is retained and comprehension of the safety sign is maintained. Consistent reproduction and use of these
safety signs will lead to a progressively improved degree of comprehension at the international level.
In cases where the orientation of the graphical symbol is not essential to the meaning of the safety sign,
the graphical symbol may be reproduced in a mirrored form. For prohibition signs, it is essential that
the prohibition bar does not obscure significant details of the graphical symbol.
NOTE The graphical symbol is the complete image containing all the graphical symbol elements as shown in
the registered safety sign.
Where a registered safety sign is not available to indicate a particular desired meaning, the meaning
shall be obtained either by developing a new safety sign following the design principles of ISO 3864-1
and ISO 3864-3 or by using the appropriate general sign (ISO 7010-M001, ISO 7010-P001, ISO 7010-
W001), together with supplementary safety information.
Tables 3 to 7 give a description of the application of each safety sign and present the safety sign originals
according to their category as follows:
— E: signs indicating an evacuation route, the location of safety equipment or a safety
facility, or a safety action (safe condition signs) see Table 3;
— F: fire equipment signs see Table 4;
— M: mandatory action signs see Table 5;
— P: prohibition signs see Table 6;
— W: warning signs see Table 7.
