Are Your Job Safety Signs Causing More Harm Than Good?
New "Retro" Industrial Urges Thoughtful Approach to Sign Programs
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 02/12/13 -- Note to Editors: There is one photo and video associated with this press release.
In an emergency, a highly visible sign offering clear direction or instruction can literally be the difference between life and death. Yet many tasked with ordering workplace signs simply order "the usual" instead of thinking through their current specific circumstances or need and how they may have changed. A new retro-style industrial with creative help from Second City alumnae aims to remind everyone involved in job safety about the need to put thought and care into an effective sign program, right through to where signs are hung for maximum effect.
The video stars Marty Adams (I, Martin Short, Goes Home; The Ron James Show; The Russell Peters Christmas Special) and is directed by Second City's Chris Earle. It is a tribute to the old, safety industrial films of the 1950s, which were, in fact, invented by a Canadian, the Academy Award-winning Frank Radford "Budge" Crawley.
"Seton is known for signs and labels so when people need them, they call us - but they are not always sure what they need. We wanted a quick, fun way to let people know what goes into a good sign so they can more easily create effective signage programs to keep their workers safe," said Rebecca Gounaris, Strategic Marketing Manager for Seton Canada.
