Hi,
Am new to all this H & S lark!
Can anyone tell me what signs I require to be displayed, i.e. first aiders, fire etc?
Many thanks,
Michelle

Depends, have you any first aiders? first aid boxes? Any fire extinguishers, evac points, evac routes?
No one here could tell you exactly which signs you will need, this would have to be done on site by a qualified safety professional.
A copy of the signs and signals regs may help give you an idea of what signs should look like to comply with the regs, but then again it again will not tell you which ones you need for your specific site which will be unique.

I agree this cannot be answered via the thread.
I also agree a copy of the Regs is a sound idea.
A look at a signs catalogue would also give you ideas.
I also agree it needs someone to take a closer look at the premises.

Hi Michelle,
Welcome to our world.
As you are new to our lark, look up HSE site (add to favourites as well as IOSH site).
Then publications
then free leaflets and browse
To help you along and help answer your current problem have a look here

Which tells you a bit about signs and points to other stuff

Ironically I had Chubb fire in not long after this post and they mentioned that they would be wiling and able to do a free (fire) safety signs inspection of the building and make suitable recommendations.
Although he did try to get me to switch to them for our extinguisher servicing at the same time :p
