Abstract

Introduction: SAFETY SIGNS are considered as visual intermediates for MESSAGE TRANSMISSION, which play a crucial role in reducing accidents particularly in petrochemical industries. These signs are effective if designed in compliance with ergonomic principles and based on human factors and cognitive design features. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the psychological effects of SAFETY SIGNS in transmitting message given their design features in a PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRY.Materials and Methods: This descriptive-cross-sectional study was performed on 100 employees in Mahshahr Petrochemical Complex. A-two part questionnaire was used to collect data; the first part about demographic information and the second part about designing features of signs (familiarity, concreteness, simplicity, meaningfulness and semantic closeness).Results: Cognitive design features included familiarity and semantic closeness with a mean of 49.15 and 66.78, respectively. Factors of work experience, age, and academic level had no significant effect on guessing the meaning of signs (p> 0.05).Conclusion: There was no significant association between cognitive features of signs and MESSAGE TRANSMISSION. MESSAGE TRANSMISSION of SAFETY SIGNS was affected by other features rather than their design. Therefore, to improve individuals’ awareness about familiarity with particular meaning of signs, ergonomic design of SAFETY SIGNS together with proper training are proposed.
