3 Points of Contact Signage – Safety Reminder for Safer Access
Promote Safer Work Practices
Promote safe work practices and reduce slips, trips, and falls with our 3 Points of Contact Signage. This sign reminds workers to keep three points of contact when climbing ladders, entering vehicles, or stepping off machinery. The rule is simple but highly effective. It encourages safe behaviour across construction, transport, warehouses, and industrial sites.
Why the Rule Matters
The 3 Points of Contact rule is widely recognised and endorsed by workplace health and safety authorities. Workers must keep either two hands and one foot, or two feet and one hand, on a stable surface. This practice improves balance, prevents loss of grip, and lowers the risk of falls. Even when carrying tools or working in high-risk areas, the rule provides a reliable safeguard.
Effective Placement
To maximise its impact, display the sign in visible locations. Place it near ladders, steps, machinery access points, or vehicle entry areas. Workers see the reminder before climbing, making safety part of daily routines. Over time, these consistent reminders help reinforce safe habits and strengthen workplace safety culture.
Built for Tough Conditions
Our signage is designed for durability. Made from UV-stable materials, it resists fading under harsh sun, wind, and rain. High-contrast graphics and bold lettering ensure the message stands out, even in low light or busy environments. For maximum visibility, choose Class 1 or Class 2 reflective finishes. For added protection, select the protective overlaminate option to guard against scratches, fading, and graffiti.
Easy Installation
Installation is quick and straightforward. Mount the sign to walls, vehicles, or access points in minutes. It offers a cost-effective safety solution that lasts. By using 3 Points of Contact Signage, you take a proactive step to reduce accidents, protect your team, and safeguard valuable equipment.
