Good morning all

Looking for a bit of help with regard to the requirement for photoluminescent signage.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for a source of information that requires these signs to be installed for night time working (i.e. Regs or British Standards)?

Is there a mandatory requirement for when this signage should be displayed?

Note; This is for a warehouse, not a hospital or public building.

Many thanks in anticipation of your responses.

The guidance document for offices and shops states on page 104 that this type of sign are not a substitute for appropriate emergency lighting and should only be used where other forms of illumination are present.

I doubt if you will find any requirement for their use?
