For a full breakdown of Singapore’s legal requirements for workplace safety signs — including WSH Act obligations, SS 508 standards, and industry-specific rules — read our Workplace Safety Signs Singapore compliance guide.
Under the Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) Act, every employer in Singapore is legally required to display clear safety signs wherever workplace hazards exist. Whether you manage a construction site, warehouse, factory, or office, the right signage protects your workers and keeps you compliant with MOM regulations.
At safetysigns.sg, all our workplace safety signs are manufactured to SS 508 (Singapore Standard) and designed in accordance with ISO 7010 — the international standard for safety sign pictograms. Available in durable aluminium, rigid PVC, vinyl, and photoluminescent materials for both indoor and outdoor use.
Frequently Asked Questions — Workplace Safety Signs Singapore
What workplace safety signs are legally required in Singapore?
Under the Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) Act and its subsidiary regulations, employers must display safety signs at any location where a hazard exists and where workers may not be immediately aware of the risk. This includes mandatory PPE signs (e.g. “Hard Hat Must Be Worn”), prohibition signs (e.g. “No Unauthorised Entry”), warning signs for electrical, chemical, and fall hazards, and emergency/evacuation signs. The specific signs required depend on your industry and the nature of hazards present — MOM recommends conducting a risk assessment to determine what signage is needed for your workplace.
Are your workplace safety signs SS 508 and ISO 7010 compliant?
Yes. All workplace safety signs at safetysigns.sg are manufactured to SS 508 (Singapore Standard for safety signs) and designed using ISO 7010 pictograms — the internationally recognised symbols for workplace safety. This means your signs will meet the requirements set by the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) and the Workplace Safety and Health Council (WSHC) for display in Singapore workplaces.
What materials are available, and which is best for outdoor use?
We offer workplace safety signs in four main materials: aluminium (1.2mm) — most durable, recommended for outdoor and high-traffic areas; rigid PVC — lightweight, suitable for indoor use; self-adhesive vinyl — cost-effective for flat surfaces; and photoluminescent — glow-in-the-dark, required in low-light or emergency exit applications. For outdoor sites — construction, marine, or industrial — aluminium is the recommended choice for longevity in Singapore’s humidity and sun exposure.
Can I order custom workplace safety signs in Singapore?
Yes. If you need signs with custom text, bilingual wording (e.g. English/Mandarin or English/Tamil), non-standard sizes, or your company logo, we offer custom printing on all materials. Custom signs are commonly ordered for confined space entry permits, site-specific hazard warnings, and multilingual worker instructions.
