The standard, publishd
by the Canadian Stan-

Symbols for the.

symbols, warning
workers of dangers. For
instance, emergency-,

should appear in a green
rectangle while the
caution symbol is a
yellow triangle. The signs
stand for such things as
no smoking, slippery
floor, -poison, open flame
and first aid by using
various symbols. _
Bray is the Chairman
of a CSA committee
which wrote this national
standard, the first of its
kind in Canada.
