Select the type of hazard sign you'd like to learn about:
Biological hazard warnings signify the actual or potential
presence of a biohazard, and identify equipment, containers,
rooms, materials, experimental animals, or any combination
of these, which contain, or are contaminated with, viable
hazardous agents.
Employee training should properly address
the meaning and significance of both the term
'Biohazard' and the biohazard symbol.
Making BIOHAZARD signs: Biohazard signs
need to contain the symbol shown to the left,
as well as the word "Biohazard"
or "Biological Hazard".
The biohazard symbol can be black, fluorescent
orange, or orange-red color. Background color is
optional as long as there is sufficient contrast
for the biohazard symbol to be clearly defined.
Appropriate wording should be use in addition to
the symbol to identify the nature of the hazard,
provide the name of the individual responsible for
its control, and to give precautionary information.
This information should not be superimposed on the
symbol.
