What this lesson covers
This lesson shows how to choose the right sign, tag, color or label for a fire hazard using the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) rules on accident prevention signs and tags, safety colors, exit marking, flammable liquid storage and hazard communication. It matters because a sign with the wrong signal word, or a label that is missing, fails at the moment someone needs it.
