What are Safety Slogans and Why they are Important?

Safety slogans are like those everyday symbols and signs that we read every day, but don’t pay much heed to. They are some of the most important messages that fall in this category. But they can truly save lives if taken seriously. For example, you might have seen posters on the subway, or around the school with slogans like:“A Stranger is a Danger” and have not given it a second thought.

But it might have remained in your subconscious, and is triggered when a creepy stranger walks up to you.

Putting Safety Slogans to Work

Safety slogans are relevant only if they are enforced the right way. Things to consider while using a safety slogan include:

1. The Relevant Area of Placing Safety Slogans

Make sure your slogan is placed within a relevant environment. This will help people to connect with the slogan more by imagining the worst that can happen. Sometimes the anticipation of fear instilled through a safety slogan, can encourage people to maintain safety procedures.

2. Wide Angle of Exposure for Your Safety Slogans

Ensure visibility of where you place your safety slogans. A slogan or a poster placed at a corner (or area) where anyone barely looks at – is not going to drive action. A few tips to improve visibility could be placing your slogan at eye-level, and in a busy street or a shop display

3. The Content of Your Safety Slogan

The content of your safety slogans need to be clear, concise and impactful. Also ensure that your message resonates with the people it is intended for. You can use a slogan full of marketing jargon for people who have no clue about marketing.

Of course, while the first 2 depend on the area of work, the last one needs to be carefully considered before deployment. Things like funny safety slogans or a graphic image may carry much more impact than a simple quote.
