The First-aid Minimum Standards Regulation requires that any employer provides an efficient first aid service as well as the presence, during business hours, of an adequate number of first aid attendants. Although not mandatory, displaying safety signs is quite recommended to indicate the position of emergency equipment since it ultimately allows a quicker and more effective response. Signs that use the standardized symbols of CSAZ31-96 (R2006) are so well outlined and deliver so swiftly the message you wish to spread that in any emergency, they will make one spare some valuable time regardless of their language abilities. Societal life calls on everyone a certain social responsibility including, among other things, offering assistance to a person whose life is in jeopardy. We are, however, not all first-aid attendants; requesting the assistance of a qualified person is sometimes the right thing to do. This is the purpose of an emergency phone. In public places, nothing like a sign pointing out there is an emergency phone, not just a work-related random phone.

Signs based on the CSAZ31-96 (R2006) standard cover a wide range of circumstances due to their many pictograms, symbols, and captions that allow a plethora of combinations regardless of the areas of activity. Posters based on the CSAZ31-96 (R2006) symbols expresing a general message that states which service is available or regulation is in effect. The "S.O.S. Téléphone d’urgence" sign displays a green square generally symbolizing first aid equipment or emergency services.

Choosing a sign depends on several factors which have to be included in the equation: the ideal material for your workplace, the distance at which the sign will be seen which pins down the size of signs, the way the work environment is shaped which determines the format of signs –let’s say in a hallway, one usually finds an L-shaped sign, but in a wide room or at the junction of a T-shaped corridor, one finds a V-shaped sign since it allows an 180 degree perspective.

Plastic signs can either be displayed inside or outside. Please note that if your sign is exposed to UV-light, colors will fade faster. UV-protecting lamination will slow down the process of fading but the colors will ultimately disappear. Aluminum signs suit a better purpose outside; of course, they can be displayed indoor, especially in an environment where an adverse impact is likely. Self-adhesive vinyl signs work just fine outside but are better fitted for indoor places.
