Booklet makes spotting dangers childsplay

Internationally harmonised ISO graphical symbols play a key part in helping people understand safety messages and public information despite language barriers or illiteracy. Examples include directing people to the exit in case of a fire, or telling people not to swim in dangerous waters.

To raise awareness about these symbols and teach people how to recognise the different meanings behind their various shapes and colours, ISO has developed a fun, easy-to-read booklet, The international language of ISO graphical symbols, which is available to download by following the link below:
