5. Be Sure to Lift Correctly
It seems doubtful that you could raise anything the way this sign suggests unless you are some sort of gorilla-like human morph. If that is even what the sign is displaying, not very many people are able of holding and dragging something with one foot and one hand. Regarding hiring an artist, the budget of this company seems to be really minimal. The clumsy example begs issues regarding the efficacy and clarity of safety signs in the workplace. And where is the other foot or arm of the "human"? Unless the artist of this picture believes that everyone just has three major appendages, he is most definitely missing something. This supervision not only reduces the sign's professionalism but also could confuse people who might really require direction on correct lifting methods. To guarantee that effective safety signage fulfils its intended use, it should be visually correct, clear, and instructive. This design's lack of information could lead to incorrect lifting techniques, therefore causing injuries the sign was supposed to prevent. In the end, this issue emphasises the need of investing in quality design and communication in safety items to transmit important information properly.
