ANSI Z535 is the code that specifies the color and symbols to be used for safety signs. To say that road signs are examples of danger signs is not correct. ANSI specifies that danger signs have a red header and white body. There are no road signs like that. Danger signs are used to warn of hazards other than road hazards. For example, you'll see danger signs in your workplace, and even on appliances you purchase from your home. ANSI caution signs have a yellow header with a white body. And ANSI warning signs have an orange header with a white body. Signs with green headers provide safety information. They are not used for identifying hazards. They do provide safety information, safety reminders, and identify the location of safety equipment and supplies. ANSI signs are not used for road hazards or traffic control. Traffic safety signs must conform to a different standard. And safety signs are not just for communicating with strangers. Regular employees need to be warned about the workplace hazards around them.
